Grouse Creek, UT Land for Sale: 10 Acres with Dirt Road

Affordable rural land can be appealing, especially when the acreage is meaningful and the entry price is low. The bigger question is not just “What does it cost?” but “What can I actually do with it after access, utilities, water, zoning, and permits are verified?”
This listing is for Parcel 01-055-0009, a 10-acre land parcel on Little Pigeon Road in Grouse Creek, Box Elder County, Utah 84313. The supplied data lists a $5,000 cash price, a $5 deposit size, a Warranty Deed, dirt-road access, no utilities, and a zoning field of Recreational.
The main caveat is important: the listing fields are a starting point, not a buildability guarantee. A buyer should confirm the county zoning district, legal access, water and septic options, flood status, taxes, and any permit requirements before relying on the land for a specific use.
Property snapshot for Parcel 01-055-0009
These are the core facts supplied for LC25241, with practical notes on why each one matters to a land buyer.
Use this number for assessor, recorder, GIS, tax, title, and county research.
This places the property in a rural northwest Box Elder County setting, where county and state due diligence matters.
The acreage may support privacy and flexible rural use, but the usable area depends on access, terrain, setbacks, and regulations.
This is the supplied purchase price; buyers should still confirm closing costs, tax status, and the purchase process.
The legal description should be compared with county records, GIS mapping, and any title documents.
Treat this as the listing’s zoning label until the actual county zoning district and allowed uses are verified.
This points toward a remote, potentially off-grid ownership profile and raises questions about road maintenance, water, septic, and power.
The tax figure is very low and should be verified with current county records before purchase.
Grouse Creek and Box Elder County setting
Grouse Creek is an unincorporated rural community in Box Elder County, Utah. The county includes both more developed valley communities and remote northwest areas, so parcel-level research is essential rather than relying on broad regional assumptions.
At the parcel level, the supplied location is Little Pigeon Road with coordinates of 41.219342, -113.797407. Those coordinates are useful for mapping, access research, flood screening, and comparing the listing against county GIS records.
The rural setting is part of the appeal for buyers who want space, low carrying costs, and a land-first ownership profile. It also means practical questions carry more weight: who maintains the road, whether access is year-round, how water would be handled, and what county approvals would be required for any improvement.
Potential uses and best buyer fit
This parcel is best evaluated as remote recreational or rural land first, with any improvement plans treated as conditional until verified. The supplied categories include Agricultural & Farm Land and Recreational & Hunting Land, but those labels do not replace zoning, access, water, septic, and permit review.
A buyer who wants simple land ownership, outdoor use, or a long-term rural holding may find the fact pattern worth a closer look. A buyer who wants to build immediately should slow down and confirm every approval path before assuming the parcel will support that plan.
- Recreational day use or rural retreat space, subject to county rules, lawful access, and any land-use restrictions
- Seasonal camping or RV-related use only if allowed by Box Elder County rules and sanitation requirements
- Hunting or outdoor staging use only where lawful and consistent with property boundaries, access rights, and applicable regulations
- Low-intensity agricultural or grazing-related exploration, conditioned on water, fencing, access, and permitted-use verification
- Long-term land hold for buyers comfortable with remote ownership, low listed taxes, and limited existing improvements
- Off-grid cabin or small-structure concept only after zoning, building permits, access, water, septic, and fire/road standards are confirmed
Due diligence checklist before buying this 10-acre parcel
For remote land in Box Elder County, due diligence should be specific, document-based, and completed before you rely on the parcel for a cabin, RV, agricultural, recreational, or long-term holding plan.
Confirm the parcel in county records
Search by parcel number 01-055-0009 and compare the assessor record, GIS map, legal description, acreage, ownership, and tax status against the listing.
Verify the actual zoning district and allowed uses
The supplied data says Recreational, but buyers should confirm the county zoning district, permitted uses, setbacks, and whether the intended use needs a permit or special approval.
Prove legal and physical access
The listing field says Dirt Road. Confirm recorded ingress and egress, whether Little Pigeon Road is public or private at the relevant segment, who maintains it, and whether access is practical in all seasons.
Plan for utilities as an off-grid parcel
The supplied utilities field says No utilities. Verify whether nearby power exists, what it would cost to extend service if possible, and whether solar, generator, propane, or other off-grid systems are realistic.
Research water and well feasibility
Do not assume a well can be drilled or used without approval. Utah water use and well questions can involve state water-right rules, well-drilling requirements, and availability limits.
Check septic and sanitation requirements
If you are considering a cabin, residence, RV stay, or other occupied use, ask the county what septic, wastewater, or alternative sanitation approvals would be required.
Screen flood, drainage, and site conditions
Use the parcel coordinates to review flood mapping and drainage patterns, then inspect the land or obtain professional help to understand topography, soil, wash areas, and seasonal conditions.
Review title, deed, taxes, and survey needs
A Warranty Deed is listed, but buyers should still review title, recorded encumbrances, easements, tax amounts, and whether a survey is needed to identify boundaries and access.
The selected official source for this guide is the Box Elder County Land Use Management & Development Code because it is the county starting point for zoning, development standards, and permit-related questions. Use it alongside county GIS, assessor or recorder records, and state water-right research before relying on the parcel for a project.
Pricing and payment notes
The supplied listing data shows a $5,000 cash price and a $5 deposit size. No owner-finance price or owner-finance terms are provided for this parcel in the supplied data.
Because the price is low, buyers may be tempted to move quickly. Still, ask how the deposit is handled, what closing or recording costs may apply, whether taxes are current, and what documents will be delivered at closing.
- What does the $5 deposit secure, and how is it handled if the purchase does not close?
- Are there any recording, document, closing, or processing costs not reflected in the supplied listing fields?
- Will the transaction close through title or escrow, or by direct deed recording?
- Are the listed taxes current, and are there any unpaid taxes or special assessments?
- If you need monthly payments, are you comparing this cash listing against separate owner-finance inventory rather than assuming financing is available here?
How to compare this parcel with other Box Elder County land
Do not compare rural parcels by acreage and price alone. For this 10-acre Grouse Creek property, the key comparison points are legal access, road quality, actual zoning, utility availability, water feasibility, septic options, flood or drainage exposure, title condition, and survey confidence.
The combination of a low cash price, dirt-road access, and no listed utilities may fit a buyer seeking remote land, but it may not fit someone who needs quick improvements or predictable residential development. The best comparison is between total verified project cost, not just advertised purchase price.

Bottom line for buyers
This 10-acre Grouse Creek parcel is a straightforward rural land opportunity on paper: $5,000 cash price, Parcel 01-055-0009, Little Pigeon Road location, Warranty Deed listed, dirt-road access field, no utilities, and a Recreational zoning field.
The right buyer is someone who understands that remote land value depends on verification. Before purchase, confirm access, zoning, taxes, water, septic, flood exposure, road maintenance, title condition, and any restrictions that could affect your intended use.
If the parcel still fits after that due diligence, it may be worth a serious look as recreational, rural, or long-term land ownership in northwest Box Elder County. If your goal is immediate building or utility-connected use, treat the listing as a starting point and get county answers first.
