510 M Street, Neligh, NE 68756

Own a piece of history: this unique property was once a Carnegie Library-one of just 1,689 built across the U.S., including 69 in Nebraska, between 1883 and 1929. From 2006 to 2008, it underwent a major transformation into a comfortable home, complete with updated plumbing, electricity, air conditioning, and a water softener.

This one-owner residence maintains its historical character, featuring original oak floors, intricate woodwork, the library's original check-out counter with brass foot rail, 14-foot ceilings, abundant large windows, and a fireplace. The impressive entryway welcomes you with over-height doors, leading into a striking foyer before flowing naturally into the inviting living room or kitchen.

The main floor includes a foyer, a kitchen with plentiful solid-surface countertops, cherry Werkmeister cabinetry, a pot-filler by the stove, and a pantry; a living room with the original oak built-in shelving and fireplace; a powder room; and a main bedroom with an en suite bathroom.

The garden-level basement features 9-foot ceilings, two walk-out entrances, an abundance of newer large windows, a foyer, second living area, three bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry room. The 9,216-square-foot corner lot is adorned by perennial plantings and has a fully fenced, private backyard.

Additionally, at 108 W 5th Street, there is a spacious 31'x80' (2,480 square foot) concrete block storage building with a new roof and two 10'x10' overhead doors, plus a ceiling height of approximately 12 feet.
