Hoytsville

Hoytsville is small enough that one sale can swing the "median" by hundreds of thousands. MLS data compiled by Best Utah Real Estate shows one closed sale in September 2025 at $613,200 and one in June 2026 at $982,500. In October 2026, a 4-bedroom on 7.27 acres on West Hoytsville Road was asking $825,000, and new Ivory homes at Countryside started at $1,345,000 before upgrades. I'd rather pull comps for the exact kind of property you want than hand you one number.

Kids here attend North Summit School District schools in Coalville: North Summit Elementary (K-4, 349 students), North Summit Middle (5-8, 323), and North Summit High (9-12, 371). Coalville's Main Street is 8 to 10 minutes from central Hoytsville. About 38% of Hoytsville households have children, compared with 34% across Summit County. It's rural and car-dependent, and the Historic Union Pacific Rail Trail runs through the valley.

From central Hoytsville, I plan on 8 to 10 minutes to Coalville's Main Street, 10 to 12 to Wanship, 20 to 25 to Kimball Junction, 30 to 35 to Park City's Main Street, and 45 to 55 to downtown Salt Lake. There's no I-80 exit in Hoytsville itself, so you get on at exit 155 in Wanship or exit 162 in Coalville. Winter weather and I-80 traffic can stretch those times, so I suggest test-driving your commute before you buy.

Utah's 45% residential exemption means a primary home is taxed on 55% of its value, but the exemption only covers the house and one acre. Extra acreage is taxed at full value unless it qualifies for greenbelt, which requires at least five contiguous acres producing more than half the county average for that land type. If land comes out of greenbelt, the county can collect rollback taxes for up to five years. I pull the Summit County tax history on every acreage property I show, because greenbelt status changes the bill that much.

The main new-build option is Ivory Homes' Countryside: 12 homesites from 1.33 to 1.82 acres, which Ivory says could work as horse properties. In October 2026, the Sorrento plan there started at $1,345,000 before options. Beyond that, most new homes here are custom builds on subdivided family parcels, so I check water, septic, and access before you fall for a view.

Per acre, the bigger parcels usually cost less. In October 2026, a 178.49-acre Hoytsville parcel with water shares was asking $3.1 million, about $17,400 an acre, while a 40.29-acre parcel was asking $3,135,000, about $77,800 an acre. Older homes on acreage are the other sweet spot: that 7.27-acre West Hoytsville Road home at $825,000 costs less than a new Countryside house on under two acres. Land value comes down to water rights, frontage, and zoning, so those are what I check first.

Hoytsville sells too few homes for a clean trend. Redfin counted one sale in the three months ending August 2026, and it took 160 days to sell. I watch pricing instead: that West Hoytsville Road home has been cut from $999,000 to $825,000 as of October 2026. On growth, Larry H. Miller Real Estate let its 1,000-acre Cedar Crest Village plan lapse in 2025, and Coalville rejected a smaller 75-home annexation that July. As of July 2025, the company still owned roughly 1,000 acres here, so I'm watching what comes next.

Yes. In October 2026, Hoytsville horse and acreage options ranged from Countryside lots of 1.33 to 1.82 acres up to ranch parcels over 100 acres. What makes or breaks a horse place is water shares or rights, irrigation, fencing, and the parcel's Summit County zoning, since at least one large Hoytsville listing carries a 20-acre minimum for new homes. I keep horses myself next door in Coalville, so I check those first and confirm water rights with the Utah Division of Water Rights before you're under contract.
