For Sale By Owner--Custom Built True Ranch in District 66/Westside

9102 Poppleton Avenue --- $325,000

Built in 1953

Open House: Sunday, July 23, 1 to 4 pm.

Private showings on Saturday, July 22 to buyers showing financial pre-approval.

Extremely well-built/solid custom home in the sought-after District 66/Westside area.

Situated in 'mid-town' Omaha with easy/quick access to I-80, I-680, downtown or all parts west, south, north. It is only 1.5 blocks from Pacific Street. But due to how the house is situated with houses and hills between it an Pacific, you never hear road noise (except for the occasional ambulance siren).

This home is in the West Pacific Hills subdivision located in the area south of Pacific Street and between 90th and 93rd Streets. In this area you will find larger, custom-built homes, each one unique--this home being no exception. When you compare/contrast this area to the neighboring Sunset Hills subdivision (located west of 93rd Street) you will note that those homes are more 'cookie-cutter' and smaller ranches--ca. 1500 s.f., much smaller lots.

The large lot/yard is 0.58 acres and features many mature trees for wonderful shade in the summer months.

The front landscaping features a lot of low-maintenance perennials (come back each year). All you need to do is add mulch periodically (once every year or two years) to 'top-it-up'.

Perennials include: many varieties of hosta (many colors & sizes), euonymus, daylilies, purple palace coral bells, iris, bee balm, yucca, bleeding hearts (2 colors), lenten rose, lilies, peonies, ferns, lily of the valley, jack-in-the pulpit, & roses. There is something blooming all the time. There is lots of room for additional gardens.

The red-mulch area would be perfect for annuals!

This south-facing home has the perfect exposure for sitting on the covered porch (watching the neighborhood!) at all times of the day.

The porch roof overhang keeps your furniture dry and shaded at all times.

There are two entrances to the house off the porch--one into the 'breezeway' and one into a entry hall.

The level driveway being south-facing is also perfect for snow clearing by the sun in the winter.

The large 2-car garage features: windows on 3 sides (lots of ambient light), real wood paneled ceiling and walls, & ample insulation. (I need to add a picture!)
