A complete private residence and retreat, with your own kitchen, living spaces, and front door.
A new neighborhood idea · Omaha, Nebraska
Private homes.
Shared life.
Your own front door. A little less upkeep.
And a little more life, just outside.
A place of your own. A neighborhood to belong to.Concept illustration
01 / A different way to live
We built bigger homes.
What if we built better neighborhoods?
More space. More privacy. Bigger yards. More distance between us. For decades, that’s been one version of the American dream.
But what if your home gave you all the privacy you wanted—and your neighborhood made connection a little easier?
That’s the idea behind PrairieHaus.
Small by intention
16 private homes.
One shared Prairie.
One shared Haus.
A small neighborhood built around a simple belief: you can have your own space and still feel part of something.
Explore the neighborhood concept ↗Our Prairie.
Most neighborhoods give every home a backyard. PrairieHaus gives every home a Prairie.
Native grasses, wildflowers, and walking paths create a shared landscape just outside your door—beautiful to look at, wander through, gather in, and watch change with the seasons.
Our Haus.
The shared indoor gathering place: room for a long dinner, a good conversation, or a celebration that needs a little more space.
02 / Everyday, with more possibility
Your own space.
A shared place.
My homeA little world
A little world
of your own.
A fire in the hearth. The Prairie outside your window, changing with the seasons. Your home is your retreat, with the life of the neighborhood just beyond.
Close the door. Settle in. Be yourself.
The Prairie · Our shared landscapeYour backyard
Your backyard
just got bigger.
Walk the paths. Cut fresh flowers. Feel the grasses move in the wind. Notice what blooms next.
The Prairie isn’t decoration around the neighborhood. It’s part of everyday life here.
The Haus · Our shared gathering placeA few steps away.
A few steps away.
A whole change of pace.
When you feel like company, head to the Haus: the neighborhood’s shared indoor gathering place, with a lounge, communal kitchen, and long-table dining space.
Deal a hand of cards. Catch up over coffee. Settle in for a neighbor’s travel photos and the stories behind them.
Stay for a while. Home is just steps away.
The Table · Inside the HausBring a dish.
Bring a dish.
Pull up a chair.
At the heart of the Haus, a communal kitchen and long dining table make room for cooking and eating together.
Try a recipe with a neighbor. Bring something to a potluck. Linger over dessert while someone tells one more story.
Join in when you feel like it.
Room for what you love
Less to own.
More to enjoy.
Own what you use every day. Share what you use occasionally. The possibilities below are ideas to explore together—not a finished amenity list.
The Glasshouse
A little dirt. Something growing.
The Workshop
Space to make something of your own.
The Court
A friendly game, steps from home.
The Council RingGood company. No reservation required.
03 / Rooted in the Prairie
A place that feels
like it belongs.
Horizontal lines. Deep rooflines. Warm wood and natural stone. Prairie Style inspiration, with an easy connection between inside and out.
Native grasses and wildflowers instead of endless lawn. A living landscape that changes with the seasons. Paths to wander. Flowers to cut. Places to sit. Porches that blur the line between your home and the Prairie beyond.
A first idea for the Omaha area
Could this be
your next chapter?
We’re exploring whether people want this way of living enough to make a move. Different ages. Different backgrounds. Different lives. A shared desire for a little more connection in everyday life.
What appeals to you? What gives you pause? What would make it work?
Help shape PrairieHausAn idea in progress. No commitment to buy or move.
A few things to know.
Is PrairieHaus already being built?
No. We’re in the discovery stage. No land has been acquired, and designs, timing, pricing, and ownership structure have not been determined. These illustrations explore a direction, not an approved development.
Who is PrairieHaus for?
PrairieHaus is being imagined for adults who value both independence and connection. Some may be empty nesters. Some may live alone or as couples. Some may never have had children. Residents could be working, retired, traveling, creating, hosting family—or simply looking for a different way to live.
A mix of ages, backgrounds, and life experiences is part of the idea.
Is this senior living?
No. PrairieHaus is not senior living, a retirement community, or a care community. It’s an intentionally small, mixed-age neighborhood of private homes with shared spaces designed to make everyday connection easier.
Would I have to participate in community activities?
The intention is choice, not an organized social schedule. Your home remains your retreat. PrairieHaus makes connection easier; it doesn’t make participation mandatory. How shared spaces are managed, maintained, and paid for is part of what we need to explore with prospective residents.
