Far North Omaha is a leafy suburb offering privacy near downtown
When you’re determined to live in a certain neighborhood, finding a new home is much easier when there are a variety of prices and styles to discover. That is certainly what you’ll find in Far North Omaha, a somewhat heavily wooded 12-mile area, surrounding the 162 acres of Omaha Country Club. “What sets this neighborhood apart from others nearby is that it has much larger lots, plenty of mature trees and it’s really quite private. But even with all the privacy and relative seclusion, you still have quick access to downtown," says Warren Wood, a Realtor with The Rensch Group/NP Dodge Real Estate. CHI Health Immanuel is located in the southwest corner of the neighborhood and is highly regarded for its cancer center, rehabilitation center and spine center. Residents can easily commute to downtown Omaha in less than 15 minutes. Closer to home you’ll find restaurants, parks, golf courses and shopping.
Options range from ranch-style homes to stately country club builds
"While this neighborhood is fairly exclusive, there is a significant price point variance, from small ranch-style homes to luxury custom homes, you'll see prices range from about $250,000 to over $1 million." Homes in the area run the gamut from 5,000-square-foot executive mansions to four-bedroom split-level homes from the 1960s. A five-bedroom, three-story, stone and Hardiplank-siding mansion located in the Country Club Oaks subdivision was listed for $775,000. You can find well-updated four-bedroom split-level homes with a one-car garage for around $225,000. While Far North Omaha offers a wide range of home styles and prices, there aren’t many on the market at one time, so when you find one that grabs your attention, don’t hesitate.
Public and magnet schools in the Ohama Public Schools system
Many North Omaha homes are within walking distance of, or a very short drive, to local elementary and middle schools. The Pinewood Panthers attend pre-K through fifth grade. They offer a unique Superintendents’ Plan for Success that has created resources for families with children from birth to Grade 3. This creates a supportive connection between the school and neighborhood families, even if the students are not yet school age. Nathan Hale Magnet is a highly diverse middle school serving kids from sixth through eighth grade. To honor the school’s namesake, the magnet theme is Leadership and Social Justice. Students are encouraged to take on leadership roles in school and in the larger community fulfilling the belief that young people can shape the future of our nation in positive ways. Omaha Northwest Magnet High offers a Freshman Academy to help students plan for success throughout their high school career. It also offers more than 40 honors programs.
