WEST DES MOINES, Iowa – Hubbell Homes, in partnership with local homebuilder Sage Homes, is proud to announce Willow Preserve, a new residential community that will bring hundreds of new housing options to West Des Moines over the next decade.
Situated on 156 acres along Veterans Parkway and SE 35th Street, Willow Preserve is planned to include an estimated 323 single-family homesites, 12.5 acres of future townhome development, and dedicated city parkland designed to enhance connectivity and recreation for residents. The community is anticipated to be developed in six phases over the next eight to ten years, helping meet the growing demand for housing in one of Central Iowa’s fastest-growing communities.
The first phase of development is expected to begin this fall and include 29 single-family lots, marking the beginning of a long-term investment in housing, neighborhood amenities and community growth in West Des Moines. The land was acquired for $6.6 million.
“We’re excited to bring Willow Preserve to West Des Moines alongside our partners at Sage Homes,” said Rachel Flint, Senior Vice President of Iowa Homebuilding and Land Development. “By pairing the expertise of two locally rooted builders and our experienced land development team, we’re creating a community that will provide a variety of housing opportunities while supporting the continued growth of West Des Moines.”
The collaboration and its impact on housing availability in our community is important,” said West Des Moines Mayor Russ Trimble. “Strong partnerships like this are essential to ensuring West Des Moines continues to offer housing opportunities for residents at every stage of life. We’re pleased to see two respected local builders working together to make additional housing available in our community while investing in the long-term growth and quality of life that make West Des Moines such a desirable place to live.”
