Beauty abounds in North Ogden, where big homes back up against snow-capped mountains and peer into the Salt Lake Valley. “It’s Utah’s north point,” says Realtor Cory Berdinner of Utah Dream Properties. “People who buy homes up here want to leave behind the busyness of their day and don’t mind driving further to get wherever they need to go.”
Homes range between the mid $400,000s and $2 million. Here, buyers know they’ll pay significantly less for large new constructions than in cities closer to Salt Lake, like Farmington. Ramblers and ranch-style homes from the early to mid-1900s account for properties on the low end, with brand-new contemporary craftsmen starting in the $600,000s. These valley homes welcome views of Mt. Ben Lomond, commonly known as “Big Ben,” through your windows. Price, size and elevation all increase together. These high-end homes cover up to 4,500 square feet. Three-car garages and wide cement driveways fit all your vehicles and outdoor toys like mountain bikes, four-wheelers and side-by-sides. Custom new traditional styles perched in the foothills of Big Ben draw attention from buyers with budgets exceeding $1 million. Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows peer into the Salt Lake Valley; this is the view you moved here for. Think of your home as the figurine inside a snow globe, with lush evergreen trees and snow-capped mountains surrounding you, offering stunning sights year-round.
Students can attend North Ogden Elementary, North Ogden Jr. High and Weber High Schools. North Ogden Elementary received a B from Niche, North Ogden Jr. High got a C-plus and Weber High got a B-plus. Additionally, Niche ranks North Ogden within Utah’s top 40% of public elementary schools.
Interactive musical instruments and intricate rope climbing structures entertain kids at North Ogden Park – located next to the elementary school. You’ll also find pickleball courts, baseball fields and a skate park. During summer, beat the heat at North Shore Aquatic Center, where massive water slides and a shallow water park provide fun for kids of all ages. Closer to home, grab your mountain bike from the garage and kick the dust up along the Ben Lomond Trail. However, Snow Basin sits just 22 miles from your front door, and most residents consider its proximity a prime perk of living in North Ogden.
Groceries are an easy errand to accomplish at Lee’s or Smith’s. Drive three miles south and arrive at your closest Walmart or keep going for five more miles and hit Newgate Mall. North Ogden is also home to a few beloved family-owned restaurants. Kirt’s Drive-in invites you to “take a trip back in time” at their retro-themed diner. Established in 1973, Kirt’s is famous for its Classic Big Joe Burgers and specialty sodas, like The Shuckster: a blend of Mountain Dew, lime and coconut. If your sweet tooth still craves more sugar, locals will likely recommend you stop by Cannery Creamery. Owners Dan and Whitney Mueller proudly claim the title as North Ogden’s only handmade ice cream shop and use local dairy to make year-round and seasonal flavors.
Over two dozen community events jam back-to-back throughout the Cherry Days. This beloved nine-day festival kicks off with an 18-hour pickleball tournament. Brave, young children dawn helmets and vests during the Jr. Posse Rodeo as they grip onto sheep, hoping to win the Mutton Bustin’ competition. Strap into rides, hop through inflatables and order a funnel cake with all the toppings; The Cherry Days Carnival posts up in North Ogden Park during the final two-day stretch. Then, the parade, grand finale concert and fireworks mark the end of another memorable Cherry Days.
