Reno Homes with Land for Sale

Showing 225 active listings · Listings updated September 28, 2026

Reno currently has 225 active homes with land for sale, with a median list price of $1,350,000 and an average of 76 days on market. Reno homes with land span everything from half-acre suburban lots with room for a workshop to 20-plus-acre high-desert ranchettes with private wells — and Nevada's zero state income tax makes holding larger parcels far more affordable than comparable California land. Most acreage inventory sits in unincorporated Washoe County foothills south and east of downtown, where well-and-septic infrastructure gives owners genuine land independence.

Why Buy Homes with Land for Sale in Reno?

  • Reno acreage parcels outside city water districts typically include private wells and septic systems, giving land-owning buyers full utility independence and no monthly municipal water bills.
  • Nevada's no-state-income-tax and low property-tax environment reduces the annual carrying cost of large parcels compared with equivalent California land — a decisive advantage for buyers relocating from the Bay Area or Sacramento.
  • Open BLM land surrounds much of the Truckee Meadows, so many Reno acreage properties back directly to public land — adding recreational depth without additional purchase price.
  • Homes with land in Reno offer flexibility that subdivision lots cannot — room for accessory dwelling units, shops, RV or boat storage, gardens, and livestock under Washoe County agricultural zoning.

Reno FAQ — 6 Answers

What Do Reno Buyers Most Frequently Ask?

Most Asked

What types of homes with land are available in Reno?

The Reno market offers a broad range: half-acre in-fill lots on the suburban fringe with city utilities, two-to-five-acre ranchettes with private wells and room for livestock, and larger parcels from ten to fifty acres in the foothill and valley areas of unincorporated Washoe County. Mix of existing homes and vacant land-with-home combinations is common.

How much land is typical with a Reno land home?

Minimum lot sizes for Washoe County agricultural zoning start around one to two acres, while the most popular ranchette tier runs five to ten acres — enough for a small barn, paddock, and vegetable garden. Larger parcels of 20-plus acres exist in the foothills toward Mount Rose and in the valleys east of Sparks, though those carry a significant premium.

Do Reno land homes come with water wells?

Properties outside the Truckee Meadows Water Authority service boundary rely on private wells. Well yield, water rights, and water quality vary significantly by location and depth, so thorough well testing is a standard contingency before closing. Properties inside city water service area will have municipal water regardless of parcel size.

Which areas near Reno have the most land for sale?

Unincorporated Washoe County south of Reno (toward Galena and Mount Rose), the Virginia Foothills east of Sparks, and the Lemmon Valley north of downtown typically carry the heaviest acreage inventory. Fernley and the Carson Valley (Douglas County) also offer land homes within commuting range if you broaden the search area.

Are there zoning restrictions on what I can do with land in Reno?

Washoe County agricultural and rural residential zones allow livestock, accessory structures, and detached shops on qualifying parcels, but specific uses depend on zone designation, lot size, and setback requirements. City of Reno parcels inside municipal limits follow city zoning codes, which are generally more restrictive. We pull the parcel's zoning sheet for every land property before you write an offer.

Is buying a Reno home with land a good investment?

Acreage in the Truckee Meadows has appreciated strongly as California buyers relocate and land supply near amenities remains constrained. Homes with extra land also provide optionality — the ability to subdivide, add an ADU, or develop agricultural income — that a typical subdivision lot cannot offer. That flexibility is increasingly valued as Nevada ADU and remote-work trends accelerate.
