Sunset Acres Homes for Sale

Sunset Acres is a lesser-known Lincoln neighborhood that can appeal to buyers seeking affordability, convenience and a quieter residential atmosphere. Located near Salt Creek and Cornhusker Highway, the area offers easy access to major roadways while remaining largely unnoticed to many home shoppers. Restaurants, grocery stores and big-box retailers line nearby 27th Street, and commuters benefit from straightforward routes both out of town and into the city center. Housing in Sunset Acres is relatively limited, but diverse. The neighborhood features ranch-style houses, manufactured homes and townhouses built from the mid-20th century through more recent decades. Home prices typically fall below Lincoln’s overall median, which can make the area attractive to first-time buyers. The neighborhood's low profile also helps maintain a calm, residential character. While there are no schools within the neighborhood itself, residents are minutes from Lincoln Public Schools such as Dawes Middle School. Outdoor amenities include Crossroads Park within the neighborhood and larger nearby parks with courts and play areas. Residents also have access to the Dietrich Connector Trail, which follows Salt Creek.
