Life in Bountiful
Bountiful divides cleanly into two real estate markets that happen to share a city name. The valley floor is flat, accessible, and home to the bulk of the city's post-war housing stock. Bungalows, ranch homes, and brick ramblers from the 1950s through the 1980s define those streets. Prices are lower, lots are reasonable, and the commute to downtown Salt Lake City runs about 10 minutes down I-15.
The East Bench tells a different story. As you climb east into the Wasatch foothills, the lots get larger, the trees get older, and the views open up across the entire Salt Lake Valley. From the right address on Maple Hills or North Bench Estates, you can see from the Oquirrh Mountains on the west to the Wasatch crest to the east, with the city grid laid out below. Those properties command a premium and come available infrequently. Mueller Park Trail starts near the upper bench neighborhoods, which adds the trail access that many buyers in this bracket want.
