A Washington community
Living in Staheli.
A small, older pocket of Washington Fields, south of the Virgin River, named for the Staheli family and anchored by the Staheli Family Farm right at its edge. The homes along Staheli Drive sit on larger lots than the newer tracts around them, with the farm's corn maze and Christmas lights a short walk away and Washington Parkway's new interchange a few minutes north.
I am Scott Buehler, a Southern Utah resident of 20-plus years and a licensed REALTOR and lender. This is the honest version of what this Washington Fields pocket offers, what it costs, and what I would check before you buy or sell here, including the part about telling old Staheli from the new infill next door.

Current listings
Homes for sale in Staheli.
No active listings today. Staheli is a small older pocket wedged among Hobble Creek, Stucki Farms, and Mesa Shadow, and between the larger lots along Staheli Drive and the newer infill nearby there just are not many houses total, so the market goes quiet between sales. A fresh listing lands on this page the day it hits the MLS. Prefer to hunt on your own? Open the map search or start from the homepage.

Life in the Fields
A quieter corner with town still close.
Staheli is one of the older names in Washington Fields, the wide farming flat south of the Virgin River, and it wears that history openly. You reach it off Washington Fields Road, with Staheli Drive and Holly Way running the pocket, and the Staheli Family Farm sitting right at the edge on the corner it is named for. It neighbors Hobble Creek, Stucki Farms, and Mesa Shadow without dissolving into any of them.
It feels different from the tighter new tracts around it. The older lots here run larger, the sky over the southern end of Washington City opens up wide, and evenings settle into the desert quiet the Fields are known for. The new Washington Parkway interchange put I-15 a few minutes north, so groceries, the freeway, and St. George stay a short honest drive even though the pace feels a world removed from the Telegraph Street strip.
I tour it as a mixed-vintage pocket, because that is what it is. In one afternoon you can walk an older, roomier home on a bigger lot along Staheli Drive and a newer infill build nearby, and those two do not price or inspect the same way. Telling old Staheli from the new construction next door is the single most useful thing you can do before you fall for any one listing here.
Neighborhood highlights
The Fields side has its own logic.
Six things make this corner of Washington Fields its own place, and each one is specific: the family farm at the doorstep, larger older lots, a new freeway interchange, the Crimson Cliffs school cone, the Grapevine trailhead nearby, and an inventory that mixes two vintages under one name.
Staheli Family Farm at the edge
The farm at 3400 S Washington Fields Road is the landmark the pocket is named for. Fall brings the corn maze and pumpkin patch, December brings the Christmas lights, and it all happens within a short walk of the neighborhood.
Larger older lots
The core along Staheli Drive was platted before the newer tracts filled in, so the lots run bigger, some pushing toward a third of an acre. That is room for a real yard, a shop, or a garden that the tighter grids nearby do not offer.
Washington Parkway interchange, ~6 min
The Washington Parkway interchange at I-15 Exit 13 opened recently, and it pulled the freeway much closer to the Fields. It also feeds the Grapevine Crossing commercial growth taking shape along the parkway.
The Crimson Cliffs cone
The Fields feed the Crimson Cliffs school cone: Majestic Fields Elementary, Washington Fields Intermediate, Crimson Cliffs Middle, and Crimson Cliffs High, all within a few minutes of the neighborhood.
Grapevine trailhead nearby
The rebuilt Grapevine Trailhead near Exit 13 opened with paved parking, restrooms, and a mile of wide multi-use path feeding the wider Grapevine trail system on the edge of the Fields.
Two vintages, one name
Older larger-lot homes and newer infill both carry the Staheli name, and neighbors like Stucki Farms and Hobble Creek sit right against it, so I confirm which pocket a home is in before I ever compare price.
Homes & lots
Two vintages, not one single tract.
Staheli is genuinely mixed, and that is the part most online searches get wrong. The older core along Staheli Drive was built decades before the newer tracts around it, so those homes tend to be larger, roughly 2,200 to 2,650 square feet, sitting on bigger lots that push toward a third of an acre. Newer infill nearby drops more standard Washington Fields product onto the tighter quarter-acre grid. Average the two together and the numbers lie to you.
So I read it in two lanes. The older larger-lot homes trade on space, mature landscaping, and how the home has been kept, and their recent figures have generally landed from the upper $400,000s into the high $600,000s, with the roomiest homes on the biggest lots pushing the top. The newer builds trade on condition and finish level and price against the surrounding Fields tracts, not against the old lane. Whichever you are looking at, the right two or three comparables matter far more than any neighborhood average.
The other quiet detail is what a larger lot invites. On the older parcels you have room for a detached shop, RV parking, or a real garden, which changes the buyer pool and the resale story. It is also why I look hard at each specific lot, its setup, its drainage, and its outbuildings, before I get excited about the square footage.
For buyers, split the search before you judge value. For sellers, do the same before you choose comps. Confirm everything against the live listings, because in a small mixed pool the right three comparables matter more than any neighborhood number.
Under one name, an older acreage-style home and a newer infill build are two different markets wearing the same address.
Trails & outdoors
Desert water and dirt, minutes out.
The Fields sit close to some of Washington County's best outdoor pockets. The rebuilt Grapevine Trailhead near Exit 13 is the nearest formal start, and from there the map opens fast, from paved riverside path to red-sand reservoir. Here is the honest tiering, from short spin to day trip.
Grapevine Trailhead, ~6 min
The reworked trailhead near Exit 13 added paved and gravel parking, restrooms, and a mile of wide multi-use path, a genuine front door to the Grapevine trail network on the northern edge of the Fields.
Virgin River Trail
The paved Virgin River Trail follows the river north of the Fields through a string of city parks, an easy, flat spin for a bike ride or an after-dinner walk that links into the wider St. George path system.
Sand Hollow State Park, ~15 min
Warm blue water against red dunes about fifteen minutes east: boating, fishing, paddleboarding, and swimming beaches, with the Sand Mountain OHV dunes right beside the reservoir.
Quail Creek State Park, ~15 min
Quail Creek reservoir sits a short drive northeast, cooler and calmer water for fishing and paddling, and an easy pairing with Sand Hollow for a two-lake summer weekend.
Farther out, State Route 9 climbs east toward Zion National Park, roughly forty minutes from the Fields, and the Red Cliffs Desert Reserve trails open up north of Washington City. The wider outdoor picture is in the Washington guide.
Trail details come from Washington City's Grapevine Trailhead project pages and the Utah State Parks system.
Errands & drive times
Errands, measured in minutes.
This is the practical answer to "how far is everything from out here." The daily loop runs a little longer than living right on Telegraph Street, but the new Washington Parkway interchange shortened it. Times are measured from Staheli Drive at Washington Fields Road; from the far end of the pocket, add a minute or two.
| The errand | Where it happens | From Staheli |
|---|---|---|
| Full grocery run | Harmons at Sienna Hills, near Exit 13 | ~8 min |
| Second grocery option | Lin's Fresh Market, Green Springs Dr | ~10 min |
| Hardware and big-box | Walmart Supercenter, 625 W Telegraph St | ~10 min |
| Healthcare | St. George Regional Hospital, 1380 E Medical Center Dr | ~14 min |
| Freeway on-ramp | Interstate 15 at Exit 13, Washington Pkwy | ~6 min |
| Rec center | Washington City Community Center, 350 N Community Center Dr | ~10 min |
| Dinner and shopping | Red Cliffs Mall, Telegraph corridor | ~12 min |
| Flights | St. George Regional Airport (SGU) | ~15 min |
| Lake day | Sand Hollow State Park | ~15 min |
Farther out, the weekend map opens up fast: Quail Creek is about fifteen minutes northeast, Zion National Park is roughly forty minutes east via State Route 9, and downtown St. George sits about twelve minutes west. The full day-trip map lives in the Washington guide.
Schools & education
Schools, by the facts.
Staheli is part of the Washington County School District, on the Crimson Cliffs cone. The area is generally served by Majestic Fields Elementary (grades PK-5), then Washington Fields Intermediate (grades 6-7) at 322 West 3090 South, Crimson Cliffs Middle (grades 8-9), and Crimson Cliffs High School, all within a few minutes of the neighborhood. Utah splits the secondary grades differently than many states, with intermediate covering sixth and seventh and middle covering eighth and ninth.
Boundaries shift as Washington Fields fills in, so confirm the current assignment for any home you are serious about directly with the district rather than guessing from a map. For independent school information, GreatSchools and Niche both publish data you can weigh for yourself. Dixie Technical College and Utah Tech University in St. George are both a short drive west.
I cover the bigger education picture in the Washington guide.
The farm next door
Living next to a working seasonal farm.
It is worth saying plainly, because it is the reason this pocket has the name it does: the Staheli Family Farm sits right at the edge of the neighborhood at 3400 South Washington Fields Road. The Staheli name runs deep in Washington Fields farming history, and the family turned part of that legacy into one of the county's best-known seasonal destinations.
That farm sets the rhythm of the year here. In October the corn maze and pumpkin patch pull families in from across the county, and the roads around the neighborhood get busier on fall weekends. In December the Christmas lights light up the fields into a local tradition. The rest of the year it is quieter, but having a working seasonal farm at the doorstep is exactly the sort of thing no listing photo captures, for better and, on the busiest weekends, for the traffic too.
So I treat the farm as a real feature to walk a buyer through, not a throwaway line. It is charm and character most Washington Fields tracts cannot claim, and it is also a live venue with seasonal crowds, and the honest move is to see the neighborhood on a quiet Tuesday and picture it on a Saturday in October before you decide.
What I check before I sell a home here as a fit
- How close the specific home sits to the farm's entrance and event parking, and what the fall and holiday weekends actually feel like from that lot.
- Whether the home is on the older larger-lot core or a newer infill parcel, since that decides which comps I pull.
- The lot's setup and drainage, and any outbuildings or RV setups the bigger parcels tend to carry.
- The current school assignment with the district, because the Crimson Cliffs cone boundaries move as the Fields grow.

What locals know
The details I would slow down and check.
Staheli rewards a buyer who reads the small print: which vintage the home is, which lot it sits on, how close the farm is, and where the boundary lines really run. These are the four things I would walk a friend through before they get attached to any one address here.
-
Do not comp old Staheli against a new tract. The older larger-lot homes and the newer infill trade on different terms. Mixing them makes the whole pocket look mispriced. Separate the vintages and the picture gets honest fast.
-
The farm is a feature and a season. Living near the Staheli Family Farm is charm eleven months a year and a busy venue on fall and holiday weekends. Picture the lot in October before you fall for it in June.
-
The bigger lot is the reason to be here. Room for a shop, RV parking, or a real garden is what the old core offers that the tighter tracts nearby do not. Confirm the lot lines and setbacks before you plan for it.
-
Know your neighbors by name. Staheli, Stucki Farms, Hobble Creek, and Mesa Shadow sit right against each other. A listing can blur the line, so I confirm which plat a home is actually in before I read a comp.

Buying in Staheli
Staheli sits in the Washington Fields area, south of the Virgin River in the southern part of Washington City. Streets like Staheli Drive and Holly Way run through the pocket, it neighbors Hobble Creek, Stucki Farms, and Mesa Shadow, and the historic Staheli Family Farm at 3400 S Washington Fields Road sits right at the doorstep.
Staheli is single-family detached, and the older core along Staheli Drive is what sets it apart. Those homes tend to be larger, roughly 2,200 to 2,650 square feet, on bigger lots that push toward a third of an acre, with newer infill nearby on the more standard Washington Fields quarter-acre grid. Lump the two together and the numbers get noisy, so I read them apart.
Staheli is in the Washington County School District, on the Crimson Cliffs cone. The area is generally served by Majestic Fields Elementary, grades PK-5, then Washington Fields Intermediate, grades 6-7, Crimson Cliffs Middle, grades 8-9, and Crimson Cliffs High School. Boundaries shift as the Fields fill in, so confirm the current assignment for any home directly with the district.
Yes, and the name is not a coincidence. The Staheli Family Farm sits at 3400 South Washington Fields Road, right at the edge of the neighborhood, and it runs seasonal events, the fall corn maze and pumpkin patch and the winter Christmas lights among them, that draw visitors from across the county.
It runs wide because the pocket mixes older larger-lot homes with newer infill. Recent Staheli list and sale figures have generally landed from the upper $400,000s into the high $600,000s, with the larger acreage-style homes on the older lots pushing the top. Treat that as a starting frame and confirm against the live listings on this page.
They are neighbors in Washington Fields, but they are not the same product. Stucki Farms is a large newer master-planned build-out with parks and a tighter modern grid, while Staheli is an older, smaller pocket named for the Staheli family, with larger lots along Staheli Drive and the family farm at its edge. I comp them separately, never against each other.

Selling in Staheli
The first question is which Staheli your home belongs to. An older larger-lot home on Staheli Drive and a newer quarter-acre infill home nearby should not be priced off the same small comp set just because they share the name. Get that split right and the rest of the pricing gets a lot more honest.
I start with live MLS comps, then separate the older larger-lot homes from the newer infill so I am comparing like with like. From there I adjust for lot size, square footage, condition, garage setup, and how close the property sits to the farm and Washington Fields Road.
List it with me and your home is featured across MovingUtah, on this page, on the Washington hub, and in the featured listings buyers browse on this site. The get featured page walks through exactly how that works.
Yes, but on a purchase I take one role only, never both. I can work as your real estate agent or as your lender, and the role is disclosed before we move forward.
