Roanoke's midcentury homes and classic neighborhood charm
“Roanoke is a popular neighborhood for first-time home buyers, as well as for those who want the ease of an updated property in an established part of west Omaha,” says Andrea Lane, Realtor with BHHS Ambassador Real Estate. Lane continues, “But what really sets Roanoke apart is the variety of unusual home designs. If you like midcentury modern homes, you will absolutely love Roanoke.” Colonial Revival, split-level and Tudor-influenced two-story homes can be found alongside raised-ranch and ranch-style homes, with unique and rare features such as arched garage doorways, octagonal rooflines and flat roofs. While the best part of Roanoke may indeed be its stunning, midcentury homes, you can certainly enjoy debating all its other attributes with friends and family over golf, a great meal or by the pool's edge.
Homes in Roanoke often look very different from one another, even within the same neighborhoods.

Raised ranch, split-level and multi-level homes from the '60s and '70s
Many homes have either park or golf course views. There are plenty of cul-de-sacs and the streets have wide sidewalks covered by mature shade trees. Trees also dot most properties and provide privacy and personality as many of them are original to the homes’ construction in the 1960s and ‘70s. Supporting the community year-round, The Roanoke Neighborhood Association provides social and preservation opportunities including Easter egg hunts and garage sales. Extensively well-updated raised ranch-style homes with about 2,100 square feet can be found for $280,000 to $300,000. Split-level and multi-level homes have sold for $240,000 to $300,000 over the first six months of 2023.
