Utah Mansion Offered at $18 Million

November 5, 2016 by Douglas A. McIntyre

In Provo, Utah, one of the country’s most pristine and safe places to live, a mansion has gone on the market for $18.5 million. The only drawback is the house is a half-hour commute to Salt Lake City.

5618 E. South Fork Road in Provo sits on nearly 30 acres. It has six bedrooms and 10 full baths within 23,568 square feet. The single-family house is new, built in 2014.

Provo has just over 115,000 residents, 84% white, with a median household income $36,390. That is below the national average. Its 14.4% poverty rate is just under the U.S. number.

24/7 Wall St. has called Provo one of America’s healthiest cities and one of the safest cities as well.
