You’re taking a huge step and building a new home. There’s a lot to think about: colors, appliances, flooring, bathrooms, bedrooms, but before you can settle on any of that, you need to decide where you’re going to have your new home built.
Real estate is all about location, location, location. However, location is more than just a spot on the map, more than the coordinates you plug into your GPS. The location also involves that fuzzy feeling that says yes, this is home. I feel a part of this place. I belong.
Peace, quiet, nature, community. Those may be items on your checklist, dreams you talk about together as you plan your new home. Sure, they’re dreams, the great what-ifs of life. There’s no way you can get everything on that list; you know that. That list is the “in a perfect world” list. You’ve resigned yourself to accept compromise as long as you can get the near-perfect home of your dreams.
Don’t settle. Don’t compromise. Take those what-ifs and place them where they can be “here is.” Place them in Eagle Mountain.
It’s not a dream. Eagle Mountain, Utah, is a great place to build your new home. Start a new family, connect to a community, and have all the things on your checklist. Just 39 miles from the heart of Salt Lake City is where you can have a new home without compromise. Don’t believe us? Then read on.

Imagine stepping outside in the morning and being met by cool, clear, crisp mountain air. Fill your lungs, clear your head, and start another beautiful day.

Living in a close, friendly community is essential for so many of us. Getting to know and trust your neighbors, meeting new people, fostering friendships that last a lifetime.
A community is block parties and smiles over the fence during an evening stroll. Communities are sharing life, the good and the bad. Communities are where we feel known, welcomed, and accepted. When the world feels fractured and disjointed, coming home to a tight community can be the thing that sets your mind at ease.

Usually, a state fair isn’t a good reason to move someplace, but what happens yearly in Eagle Mountain isn’t a state fair; it’s something quite unique.
We’re talking about Pony Express Days, a very big celebration in Eagle Mountain.
In late May or early June, the people in Eagle Mountain gather to celebrate a piece of our American history. Once upon a time, the original Pony Express passed through the area, which is now Eagle Mountain.
Why is this cause for a grand celebration? Well, riders would regularly cover more than 1,800 miles in 10 days. From St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California, the Pony Express could deliver a letter faster than ever before. It was in operation for only 18 months between April 1860 and October 1861, but the Pony Express has become synonymous with the Old West.
The Old West is an enduring symbol of American courage and determination, a need to expand and push our boundaries to explore all that was and still is possible in this great country. They were boys riding fast and hard to deliver letters, but they symbolized more than that. Their spirit lives on, and that’s what Pony Express days in Eagle Mountain are all about. A spirit of discovery, adventure, and a history of what defines America.
Eagle Mountain’s Pony Express days are not a state fair; they are a celebration of America, which is a land of community and opportunity, a land of possibility, and a land where you can dream it, and it can become a reality.
Sounds pretty great, right? Well, it is. Eagle Mountain is a special place and one where you can quickly check off everything on your “in a perfect world” list when you’re planning where to build your new home.
