Newest first
The newest horse-allowed listings.
Fed straight from the local MLS and pulled toward larger-lot and agricultural-fringe parcels: new Herriman listings appear here as they list, and sold properties drop off. The read on the zoning, acreage, and outbuildings that make a parcel work for horses is just below.
Buying here
Confirm zoning before you fall for the acreage.
Whether a specific parcel can keep a horse comes down to its zoning and Herriman City's animal limits, not the lot size on the listing. Tell me the acreage and setup you need and I will have the Herriman-area partner agent I work with verify the zoning and outbuildings on any parcel before you tour.

The local read
What a horse-allowed property actually takes in Herriman.
Start with the honest frame, because it shapes the whole search: most of Herriman is master-planned subdivision where keeping a horse is simply not permitted: the lots are too small and the zoning does not allow it. What does exist is a narrow band of agricultural-fringe and larger-lot parcels, mostly on the rural edges of a fast-growing city, where the zoning permits horses and the land is big enough to make it practical. This page is about finding that subset and confirming, parcel by parcel, that a specific property can actually keep horses.
Whether horses are allowed comes down to the parcel's zoning and the city's animal rules, not to the listing photo or a neighbor's barn. Zoning controls whether horses are permitted at all, and it typically governs how many animals a lot may keep relative to its size. Those rules differ from parcel to parcel and they change as the city annexes and rezones land, so the single most important step is verifying the current zoning and animal limits with Herriman City for the exact address before you write an offer. Do not assume a citywide rule, and do not assume that because the place next door has a horse, this lot can too.
Once the zoning checks out, the property has to support the animals. That means usable, not just total, acreage: flat, fenced ground a horse can actually use, separate from the house pad and the steep or unbuildable slope that often pads a bench parcel's lot size. It means the outbuildings, or the room to add them: a barn, a loafing shed for shelter, a covered or open arena, secure fencing and gates. It means water, which on the Herriman fringe is a real question. Some areas carry seasonal secondary pressurized irrigation water, roughly May to mid-October, and that, plus any irrigation or stock-water rights on the parcel, is what keeps pasture alive through a dry valley summer. And it means trailer access: a gate wide enough, a driveway and turning room a truck and horse trailer can use without threading the neighborhood.
These properties overlap heavily with two other searches, so run them together. The same larger, older, agricultural-edge parcels are where the no-restriction lots and the room for outbuildings tend to live, and they are also the parcels with the side-yard width and gates that the RV-parking page covers. Many of these fringe homes are also single-level builds, so the single-story page is a useful third filter. Earlier in the process than show me listings? Start with the Herriman guide, and when a parcel below looks like it has the land and the zoning, that is the moment to reach out so we can confirm the zoning and animal limits before you spend a Saturday on it.
What makes a parcel work for horses
-
Permitting zoning: the threshold question. The parcel must carry a zone that allows horses, and that zone usually caps the number of animals relative to lot size. Confirm the current zoning and animal limits with Herriman City for the exact address. It is not a citywide rule and it changes as land is rezoned.
-
Usable acreage: total lot size on a bench parcel can include steep or unbuildable slope. What matters is the flat, fenceable ground a horse can actually use, separate from the house pad. Walk it and measure the part that is genuinely pasture or paddock.
-
Outbuildings or room to add them: a barn, a loafing shed for shelter, an arena, secure perimeter fencing and gates. Either the property already has them or the buildable area and setbacks leave room to add them. Verify any existing structure was permitted.
-
Water and trailer access: stock water and pasture irrigation. Some Herriman areas carry seasonal secondary irrigation water, and any parcel water or irrigation rights matter. Plus a gate, driveway, and turning room a truck and horse trailer can actually use.
The local map
Where the horse-allowed parcels actually are.
Horse-permitted land in Herriman sits on the rural and agricultural edges, not in the master-planned interior, and even there it is parcel by parcel. Here is where to look, with the reminder that the zoning has to be confirmed for each specific address.
The agricultural and rural fringe
The larger-lot parcels on the edges of the city, where the older land use and bigger lots predate the subdivision build-out, are the most likely to carry zoning that permits horses. This is the core of the search. Every one of these still needs its current zoning and animal limits confirmed for the exact address.
Larger lots toward the south and Camp Williams edge
The southern edge of the city toward Camp Williams keeps more open ground because of the military post, and some larger parcels sit out here. Weigh the land against the honesty notes for that edge: periodic training noise carries in, so visit the specific street at different times, including evenings.
The west bench against the Oquirrh foothills
Some larger parcels climb the western foothills where the subdivisions meet the Oquirrh slope and the trail network. Acreage out here can read big on paper while a lot of it is steep, unbuildable hillside, so the usable, fenceable, flat ground is the number that matters for keeping animals.
Older, pre-subdivision parcels scattered through the city
A handful of older homes on larger lots predate the master plans that grew up around them and may carry legacy zoning. These are scattered and rare, and proximity to a new subdivision does not change the parcel's own zoning, so confirm it directly rather than assuming from the surroundings.
Yellow Fork and Rose Canyon country (context, not subdivisions)
The southwest edge runs out toward Yellow Fork and Rose canyons, hike-and-equestrian trail country on the city's rural margin. It frames why some fringe parcels here have an agricultural character, but verify the operator and any access, and remember trail country nearby is not the same as horse-permitted zoning on a given lot.
What to rule out: the master-planned core
Rosecrest, Anthem, the Towne Center, Olympia, and the rest of the subdivision interior are small-lot, master-planned blocks where horses are not permitted. There is no point touring there for this purpose. The live listings above are filtered toward the larger-lot stock for exactly that reason.
Before you tour: what to actually check
Confirm the zoning and animal limits: before anything else, have the agent pull the parcel's current zoning and Herriman City's permitted animal count for the exact address. This is the question the whole purchase turns on, and it is not a citywide answer.
Measure the usable acreage: walk the lot and separate the flat, fenceable, genuinely usable ground from the steep or unbuildable slope that pads a bench parcel's total size. The usable number is what supports the animals, not the lot-size figure on the listing.
Inspect or price the outbuildings: look hard at any existing barn, shed, arena, and fencing, and confirm each was permitted. If they are not there, check the buildable area and setbacks for room to add them later.
Track down the water: ask which water systems serve the parcel, whether it carries seasonal secondary irrigation, and what irrigation or stock-water rights, if any, come with it. Pasture and animals through a dry valley summer depend on it.
Test the trailer access: check that the gate is wide enough and the driveway and yard give a truck and horse trailer room to turn and back without threading the neighborhood. It is easy to overlook until the first delivery.
Walk the foothill and fire diligence: on the west and south fringe, the same edges that hold the bigger parcels sit near foothill vegetation, so ask about defensible space and walk the slope. Routine diligence for this geography, parcel by parcel.

Quick answers
Horse property, answered.
On the right parcel, yes, but it is a narrow subset of the city. Most of Herriman is master-planned subdivision where horses are not permitted because the lots are small and the zoning does not allow it. The agricultural-fringe and larger-lot parcels on the rural edges are where horse-permitted zoning exists. Whether a specific property qualifies comes down to its parcel zoning and Herriman City's animal rules, which you confirm address by address.
The parcel's zoning and the city's animal regulations, not the listing photo, not the lot size alone, and not whether a neighbor keeps a horse. Zoning sets whether horses are permitted and usually caps how many animals a lot can keep relative to its size. Those rules vary parcel to parcel and change as the city annexes and rezones land, so the only reliable step is verifying the current zoning and animal limits with Herriman City for the exact address.
Two numbers matter, and they are different. The first is the zoning, which typically ties the number of permitted animals to the lot size, so the city's rule for that parcel sets the cap. The second is usable acreage, the flat, fenceable ground a horse can actually use, which on a bench lot can be a lot less than the total size once you subtract steep or unbuildable slope. Walk the parcel and confirm both rather than going off the lot-size figure on the listing.
Some do, some do not. A working setup wants a barn, a loafing shed for shelter, secure fencing and gates, and ideally an arena. On a given parcel those may already be built, in which case confirm each was permitted, or you may be buying the land and the buildable room to add them within the setbacks. The no-restriction lots tend to overlap with the parcels that have room for outbuildings.
It is a real question on the Herriman fringe. Some areas carry seasonal secondary pressurized irrigation water, running roughly May to mid-October and serving only parts of the city, and the garage swing valve is often the tell for whether a home is on it. On top of that, any irrigation or stock-water rights attached to the parcel matter for keeping pasture alive through a dry valley summer. Ask which systems serve the parcel and verify any water rights independently.
Because these parcels are scarce, the move is to set the search up ahead of time. Tell me the acreage, the outbuildings, and the water you need, and I will connect you with a Herriman-area partner agent who flags qualifying larger-lot parcels as they list, with the zoning and animal limits confirmed with the city before you tour. Reach out and we will get the filter pointed at the right rural edges so the next one reaches you the morning it lists.
