Open ground in Duchesne County
5000 West, outside Roosevelt, Utah, runs through a 69-acre Duchesne County parcel where county assessor records show raw land standing until 2012, when a house of more than 68,000 square feet was built there, addressed at S 5000 West and 5476 W 2000 S. No earlier owner or sale is recorded for the ground.
A house rose on 69 acres of flat desert in 2012
You're standing on 5000 West, a country road running through open land west of Roosevelt, Utah. Around you the ground is flat high desert, cut into large residential lots rather than city blocks. The county's own records show a house built here in 2012, sitting on a 69-acre parcel addressed at S 5000 West. That is the whole span the record gives for this exact patch of dirt: raw land, then a house, nothing in between.
The nearest named place is Ioka, a small hamlet about two miles northeast, on record since 1915. Roosevelt itself, the nearest town, lies close by, but the ground under your feet belongs to the county's rural tracts, not to the town plat.
The lot's record names no owner before the house
The county's assessor record carries this exact lot: 69 acres, addressed at 5476 W 2000 S and 1868 S 5000 W, out in Duchesne County. The land sat as raw acreage until 2012, when a house went up on it, more than 68,000 square feet of building recorded on the parcel. The record names no earlier owner and no sale before that date. It is a private home today.
The house and its outbuildings stand on open acreage along 5000 West, with no public access.
