West Des Moines Real Estate: Executive Housing Key in Jobs Growth

As the best city in America for jobs growth, West Des Moines owes some of its success in attracting top employers to providing amenities, such as executive-style housing, that will make CEOs and their families want to stay.

Five houses are featured in the $500,000 - $750,000 price range on Aol Real Estate, all but one of them in the tony Enclave of Ashworth development, and all are brokered by Coldwell Banker - MidAmerica Group.

The exception is a $550,000 house at 8305 Mills Civic Parkway. An eleagant 2,706-square-foot walkout hohouse, it has an open, thoughtful design that incorporates fabulous finishes – both inside and out, where beautifully landscaped spaces extend the living and entertaining area.

The house has amenities like a covered four-season room, a private hot tub room, a culinary kitchen and a large wine closet.

“Without question,” the listing broker wrote, “this home boasts quality and uniqueness throughout while offering an acreage setting with mature trees.”
