New Year, New Homes
Happy 2025, OmahaHome readers! It hardly seems possible that the new millennium was a quarter-century ago. So much has happened, and so many beautiful homes have been built since that time.
It’s not the 2020s that come into play in this issue—rather, the 1920s are a common thread throughout this edition of OmahaHome.
This early 20th century thread is seen in one of the features, a house at 3316 Center St. that has seen much publicity since last fall. This is informally known as “The Magic House,” as it was home to David P. Abbott, a notable magician during the early part of the 20th century.
In the Architecture department is a unique building that shows what determines Spanish Colonial style with an apartment building built in 1921, and renovated by InCommon in 2023. The building is known as Hanscom Apartments, and sits at 1029 Park Ave.
The Spaces article is about a modern bar area with a speakeasy vibe.
Coming into the 2020s, the other feature in this issue has got some major "wow" factor. This “farmhouse modern” style house in West Omaha is a dream home with nearly 7,000 square feet of space, six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and more.
This edition also invites readers to learn about the Haeders. This family of six is very popular in their neighborhood: they host a block party every other week during the summer, Husker parties during football season, and more during the holidays. They renovated their 1980s ranch home so that they can keep the parties rolling no matter the season.
These are a few of the fabulous articles that can be seen on the pages of this first edition of OmahaHome for 2025.
