If you’ve been searching for a home that truly stands out from the typical new construction options, 552 Westwood Drive in Huxley is one you’ll want to see. With over 2,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this two-story home combines high-end finishes, a functional layout, and a location that continues to attract buyers looking for value just outside of the Des Moines metro.

A Grand First Impression

From the moment you walk through the front door, this home makes an impact. The two-story entryway creates a sense of openness, while the custom wainscoting detail adds a layer of character you don’t often find in new construction homes.

This is a space that feels elevated right away—and it sets the tone for the rest of the home.

A Kitchen Designed to Stand Out

The kitchen is one of the most impressive features of this home—and it’s easy to see why.

A waterfall island anchors the space, complemented by quartz countertops, a gas range, and stainless steel appliances. What really sets this kitchen apart, though, is the combination of a hidden walk-in pantry and a separate butler’s pantry—offering both style and functionality for everyday living and entertaining.

Whether you’re hosting guests or just enjoying a quiet night at home, this kitchen was designed to be both beautiful and practical.

Open Living with Natural Light

The main living area flows seamlessly from the kitchen into a spacious living room, creating an open-concept layout that works well for modern living.

A wall of windows fills the space with natural light, while the built-in electric fireplace provides a focal point that brings warmth and comfort to the room.

Just off the garage, a mudroom with built-in lockers adds another layer of functionality—perfect for keeping things organized throughout the day.

A Functional and Private Upper Level

Upstairs, the layout continues to impress with four bedrooms all located on the same level—a feature many buyers prioritize.

The primary suite is designed as a private retreat, featuring a spa-like bathroom with a standalone soaking tub, tiled shower, and a walk-in closet with custom shelving.

Three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an upstairs laundry room with a wash sink complete the second level, offering both convenience and space for everyday living.

Exterior Features and Lot

Situated on a corner lot in Huxley’s Westview Heights, this home offers additional space and curb appeal.

The exterior includes a walkout patio and a 3-car attached garage, giving you flexibility for storage, hobbies, or additional parking.

Location: Small-Town Feel with Easy Access

One of the biggest draws of this home is its location.

Huxley continues to be a popular choice for buyers who want a quieter, small-town atmosphere without giving up convenience. Located in the Ballard School District, this home also offers quick and easy access to both Ames and the Des Moines metro—making it ideal for commuters or anyone wanting to stay connected to both areas.
