West Albright/Bonfield offers renovated homes in a convenient location
“Savvy homebuyers have really caught on to historic Omaha neighborhoods,” says Oscar Barrera, Realtor with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate. “They like the variety and flexibility of the ranch-style homes around here. Many that come to market are nicely updated if not fully renovated and buyers know that’s great for resale value.” West Albright/Bonfield is a perfect example of a historic Omaha neighborhood that is “no longer a hidden gem”, continues Barrera. “These historic downtown neighborhoods are strong examples of the power of urban transformation. It’s hard to beat attractively priced homes with proximity to great schools, shopping, restaurants and the interstate.”
