Ranch-style homes and expansive properties show housing diversity

While Northwest Omaha is a considerably large area – more than 20 square miles – home styles are fairly consistent. Homes were built from 1970 to 1990. Raised ranch-style homes, traditional ranch-style homes and split-levels range in price from $220,000 to $315,000. As many of these mid-century homes are reaching their “middle ages,” buyers will find that many coming to market are newly updated, if not fully renovated. The exception to this commonality is a 2-mile-wide enclave situated just between Boys Town and Linden Estates. These four- and five-bedroom homes range from 5,000 to over 10,000 square feet, with prices starting around $500,000 and soaring well above $1 million.
