North Central Omaha has room to spread out
While country music stars The Chicks may not have been singing about North Central Omaha in their anthem “Wide Open Spaces," this expansive community of open land, a massive lake, and desirable homesites certainly offers room to make one’s dreams come true. Not only can you find multi-acre properties fronting Lake Cunningham with companion outbuildings, but you’ll also find custom-built estates, new construction, and raised ranch-style homes. While it may seem remote as there’s plenty of room to spread out in North Central Omaha, you’re still less than a 20-minute drive to downtown. All the luxuries and conveniences you need are nearby as well. As Andrea Lane, Realtor with BHHS Ambassador Real Estate says, “This is a really accessible location, even though there’s plenty of room to breathe. It’s super close to schools, shopping, and restaurants and you can easily jump on I-680 to get where you need to go.”
