Ramble Ridge strikes a balance between city and country
The peaceful streets of Ramble Ridge wind through northwest Omaha, about 11 miles from downtown. In every direction, you’ll find the recreational lakes, golf courses and walking trails that are woven into the landscape as urban sprawl gives way to the Nebraska countryside. But living here doesn’t mean sacrificing city conveniences. Interstate 680 is close by to keep you tethered to Downtown Omaha, and there are plenty of shopping centers and diverse dining options within a mile of the neighborhood.
What you need to know about owning a home in Ramble Ridge
Most Ramble Ridge residents own their homes, but apartments make up about a third of the property mix, and several agencies are here to help renters find the right place. With a median home sale price of $280,000, slightly below the citywide median, the neighborhood offers “the right price range for a first-time homebuyer,” says Matthew Donahue, a Realtor with BHHS Ambassador Real Estate who has 10 years of local experience. Properties sell from the lower $200,000s to the lower $300,000s after spending an average of 20 days on the market. Once you buy, membership in the Ramble Ridge Property Owners’ Association is mandatory, and the annual dues are $40. Covenants are fairly strict: Visible clotheslines are prohibited, and households are limited to two pets.

It’s typical for houses here to offer between 1,500 and 2,000 square feet of living space. Despite their age, most homes are well-maintained, with many boasting modern upgrades like new flooring, bathroom fixtures, cabinetry and kitchen appliances.
