Upland Terrace Homes for Sale — Millcreek, Utah

Upland Terrace is one of the most family-friendly established neighborhoods in Millcreek, Utah, set on the east bench. It is bounded by 2700 East on the west, 3100 East on the east, Craig Drive on the north, and Upland Drive on the south — a compact, mature, tree-lined pocket that has become one of the most sought-after spots in east Millcreek for one big reason: the schools are right here.

Its defining feature is walkability to all three neighborhood schools. Upland Terrace Elementary (on Sunnydale Drive), Wasatch Junior High, and Skyline High School are all within or directly adjacent to the neighborhood, so families can have a child walk to elementary, junior high, and high school for their entire school career — a genuine rarity on the Wasatch Front. Notable streets include Mountain View Drive, Peach Street, Orchard Drive, and Sunnydale Drive.

Homes here were built predominantly in the 1940s through the 1960s. Originally, these were modest mid-century homes ranging from about 1,169 to 2,400 square feet on tidy .18 to .3 acre lots, with no HOA. In recent years, the neighborhood’s desirability has driven a wave of redevelopment: many original homes have been torn down and rebuilt as larger new-construction homes, pushing the upper size range to roughly 6,270 square feet. The result is a street-by-street mix of well-kept originals and brand-new custom builds, with recent prices running approximately $750,000 to $1,500,000 depending on whether a home is original or rebuilt.

That mix is part of the appeal. Because there is no HOA and the lots sit in such a desirable, walk-to-school location, Upland Terrace offers buyers two clear paths: move into a charming, updated mid-century home, or buy for the lot and build new. Either way, the location — and the schools that come with it — anchors long-term value.

The schools themselves are a draw. Upland Terrace is in the Granite School District, and Wasatch Junior High consistently posts some of the highest test scores in the state, while Skyline High (Home of the Eagles) is long regarded as one of Utah’s leading academic high schools. The independent McGillis School (K-8) is a nearby private option. Verify your specific address’s assignment before purchasing.

Location rounds out the picture. Upland Terrace sits in the 84109 zip code, close to Millcreek Common, the mouth of Millcreek Canyon, and the east-bench trail network, with I-215 and downtown Salt Lake City roughly 15 minutes away and the Cottonwood ski canyons a short drive south.
