Hartman Avenue

Suburban Neighborhood in Omaha, Nebraska

Douglas County 68104
$245,133 Average Value

The west Omaha neighborhood of Hartman Avenue is just about four miles square and therefore has only 280 homes. While that is not surprising, what may be is finding that some of your closest neighbors are big, four-legged ones. Hartman Avenue not only offers a mix of mid-century homes to savvy homeseekers, but it also offers shelter to Dobermans and rescued horses. Formerly farms and pastureland for hundreds of years, it’s altogether natural that the neighborhood still supports the well-being of domestic animals.

“Country living in the city!” boasted advertisements from the 1940s and 1950s for new homes in Hartman Avenue. Lot sizes are indeed a bit larger than in nearby neighborhoods, with homes on the market having one-quarter acre to one-half acre lots. Recent sales for three- to four-bedroom ranch-style homes on at least a quarter of an acre have been between $180,000 and $230,000. “A key feature that sets west Omaha apart is the prevalence of mid-century modern ranch-style homes and split levels, which are becoming popular again,” says Will Hagel, Realtor with BHHS Ambassador Real Estate.

Local children can attend Mount View Elementary for pre-K through fifth grade. Right next door is the Mount View Boys and Girls Club which partners with the school to provide after-school and summer camp programs. 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. Benson Magnet High offers AP and honors classes and a Career Academies concentration in one of the following three content areas: Design & Construction, Business & Entrepreneurship, and Health Professions.

Norwick Park is quietly tucked away at the southeast corner of the neighborhood and offers three acres of walking paths, open space, a playground and a picnic area. Shopping venues range from small boutiques to strip malls, urban thrift to upscale fashions. Lyree Lovely Jewels offers on-trend jewelry, accessories and scarves. Nearby in Stockyards Plaza, Urban Casual offers a huge selection of t-shirts, hoodies, shorts and shoes.

When you’re ready to stock up your new home with sheets, towels and home décor, Walmart Supercenter is nearby at 50th Street. Baker’s supermarket has everything your kitchen needs, plus a pharmacy and a garden center. Neighborhood restaurants featuring homestyle cooking and ethnic favorites are nearby. Jackson’s Take Out is known for its catfish and smoked ribs. Abelardo’s Mexican Fresh is a mid-west franchise dedicated to serving tacos, burritos and tostadas with the freshest ingredients every day.

Living in Hartman Avenue provides you with easy access to downtown Omaha and Eppley Airport when you need to get away. Returning home to your two and four-legged friends and neighbors will be a pleasure as you settle into your new country home in the city.
