Foot Hills residents benefit from panoramic views anywhere they go, with Lake Utah in the west and Wasatch Mountains to the east. The rocky mountain ranges, snowcapped until spring and full of verdant plant life in the summer, provide a backdrop for residents' day-to-day lives. What sets Foot Hills apart from the rest of Provo is the larger lot sizes and proximity to the majestic mountains.  The homes in Foot Hill are diverse and mature, with many built in the ‘40s or ‘50s. The area has a quiet feel to it that’s brought in by the homes' historic charm and, of course, the nearby mountain range. On the western side of the neighborhood, you will find three-bedroom, single-story rambler homes. These houses have gardens in their front yards that are often fenced in. On the east, you will more commonly see multistory homes with large patios, fountains in the front yard, and steep staircases to ascend as you arrive home. 

If you are hoping to build your dream home from the ground up, Foot Hills has large lots near the mouth of Slide Canyon for sale. If you find one you like, act quickly because, according to Realtor Jason Knight, the large lots are disappearing. “There is a shift happening; you will see smaller lot sizes as more people are opting for community living,” he says. But in Foot Hills, owning land with space to make it your own is still a possibility. 

Provo locals love to get outside, and Foot Hills homes are right by some of the best opportunities to do so. Right near the mouth of Slide Canyon, you will see access to the Y trail, offering a steep-but-worth-it climb up to a beautiful view. If you like camping or rock climbing, Slide Canyon has many opportunities for adventure – and you would be in good company too. According to Real Estate Agent Cody Steck, “Most people from Utah are super outdoorsy. Everyone is into something here.” Many locals even like to take their dogs on a morning hike because trailheads can be only a five-minute drive away – a benefit that homes farther east don’t have.  

“There are awesome views here; you can see the lake and the mountains from pretty much anywhere when you're driving around,” Steck says. If you ever want to stop and take it all in, Summit Drive is the perfect spot to pull over and admire the view.

Being one with nature doesn’t negate quick dining options; there are plenty close by. Sushi Burrito, a spot named for its unique spin on two classics, offering a combination of sushi and burrito, is only a five-minute drive from some of even the most eastern houses. There's also Mo’ Bettahs Hawaiian Style, offering take-out teriyaki chicken and large lunch plates.   

When it comes to shopping and dining in Provo, Steck shares what you might notice when running errands on a Sunday. “Much of the area is shut down on Sundays. Pretty much the only thing open is going to be a few fast-food places, Walmart, and the gas station.” This is due to the religious influence in Provo.     

The Foot Hills lifestyle means hilly streets, and quiet residential blocks with trailheads right nearby. No matter what block you’re on, you’ll be living large in one of the most beautiful spots in Provo.
