Office Space West Des Moines: 4 Best Private Offices 2026

If you are searching for office space West Des Moines teams can actually move into this month, Wezoo lists four buildings in and around the city and eighty private offices across them. Four buildings. One operator. Eighty rooms. Every one of those rooms carries a one month minimum term, a listed monthly starting price and a stated ceiling on how many people fit.

That is a narrower market than the search results suggest, and a more usable one. Most of what ranks for office space West Des Moines is brokered commercial real estate quoted by the square foot per year, where the smallest suites are still whole floors on multi year terms. This guide covers the other model: furnished, serviced rooms you ask about and move into. If you want the product explained end to end first, start with our complete guide to private office space, then come back for the local picks.

One honest note before the picks. Three of the four addresses carry West Des Moines as their city in Wezoo’s records. The fourth, 1200 Valley West Drive, is filed under Des Moines. It is on this list because it is the nearest listed option on the suburb’s eastern approach, and it is labelled plainly below so you can decide for yourself when you compare office space West Des Moines listings. The two buildings inside Des Moines city limits are covered separately in our Des Moines office space guide.

What does office space West Des Moines cost per month?

Listed monthly starting prices run from $165 to $2,120. The low end is a single person room at One Corporate Place; the high end is the largest room at West Glen Town Center. Those are starting prices, not quotes, and a private office is not a product you add to a cart. You send one request, the operator scopes it to your headcount and your start date, and the figure comes back from them.

What makes these numbers usable is the unit. A brokered listing prices a year of a square foot. Wezoo prices a month of a room, and tells you how many people the room is rated for, so you can compare a four person office in one building against a four person office in another without a spreadsheet in between.

For wider context on what the local office economy looks like, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics counts 49,810 jobs in office and administrative support in the Des Moines area, or 12.3 percent of local employment against 11.4 percent nationally. Insurance claims and policy processing clerks are employed here at 2.44 times the national rate. That is the demand sitting behind these buildings, and it is why a suburb of this size supports four serviced addresses.

When should you choose a serviced office over a brokered lease?

Both models are live in this market and they answer different questions. A brokered lease gives you a shell, a rate quoted per square foot per year, a term measured in years and a fit out you negotiate. Some of the listings that surface for this search are for sale rather than for rent, which is a third transaction again, so read the header before you read the price. If you know your headcount for the next five years and you want to build the space around it, that route is the right one and a local broker is the person to call.

A serviced office answers a smaller question: where do nine people sit on the first of next month. Furniture, internet, reception and cleaning are inside the monthly figure, the term on every listing here is one month, and you scale by changing rooms instead of renegotiating a contract. Square footage is a landlord’s unit. Headcount is yours.

The honest trade is control. You do not pick the carpet, you do not brand the lobby and you share the kitchen. If what you actually need is a desk two days a week rather than a room, coworking space in Des Moines is the cheaper shape, and if you only need a room for the quarterly board session, book a meeting room in Des Moines by the hour and keep working from wherever you work now.

The 4 best office space West Des Moines private offices

These are the four office space West Des Moines addresses on Wezoo, ranked by how much choice each one actually gives you: entry price, how many rooms are listed and how many of them are open now. All four are operated by Regus.

1. One Corporate Place — 42nd Street

What to expect: The entry price across all four buildings starts here, at $165 a month for a one-person room, and the ceiling is the highest team size on the list at eleven people. Eighteen private offices are listed and fourteen of them carry no future start date, so they are open now. The photo above is one of the building’s meeting rooms, which tells you what the finish level is before you drive out. Transit is thin: the closest bus stops in Wezoo’s data sit on University Avenue, at Westridge Center and at the Shoppes at Three Fountains, both a little over a kilometre of walking away.

Operator: Regus · Address: 1501 42nd Street, West Des Moines · Listed: 18 offices, 14 available now · From: $165 per month · Team up to: 11

Pick this one if you want the widest spread between a single desk and a team room under one roof.

2. West Glen Town Center — West Glen

What to expect: Twenty six private offices are listed, twenty of them with no future start date, which is the deepest live choice of the four. It is also the only building on this list whose Wezoo record carries a lounge, a coffee and tea bar and a public parking lot alongside the breakout space and catering every Regus address here has. Parking is the standout number: the nearest lot in Wezoo’s data is a 146 metre walk, roughly a hundred seconds. The ground floor is street level retail, so lunch is a walk rather than a drive.

Operator: Regus · Address: 5550 Wild Rose Lane, West Des Moines · Listed: 26 offices, 20 available now · From: $265 per month · Team up to: 8

Pick this one if you want the most rooms to choose from and the shortest walk from the car.

3. 1601 West Lakes Parkway — West Lakes

What to expect: A low rise red brick campus set back on a lawn rather than a tower on a street corner, which is a different kind of first impression for a client who drives in. Twenty private offices are listed and twelve are open now, from $225 a month up to $1,800, with the largest room capped at eight people. The named parking in Wezoo’s data is Mercy West Lakes, a little over a kilometre of walking, and the nearest recorded bus stop is 60th Street at Vista Drive.

Operator: Regus · Address: 1601 West Lakes Parkway, West Des Moines · Listed: 20 offices, 12 available now · From: $225 per month · Team up to: 8

Pick this one if the building itself is part of the pitch and your team arrives by car.

4. 1200 Valley West Drive — Valley West

What to expect: Read the city line on this one before anything else. Wezoo files this address under Des Moines, not under West Des Moines, so treat it as the edge of your search rather than the middle of it. It sits on Valley West Drive, on the west side of the Des Moines metro and the easternmost of these four, and the nearest bus stop in Wezoo’s data is 31st Street at Valley West Mall. Sixteen private offices are listed, nine of them open now, from $330 up to $1,155 a month, with a ceiling of seven people. The photo shows what you get: a large surface lot and a plain mid-rise, which is the point if parking matters more than the lobby.

Operator: Regus · Address: 1200 Valley West Drive, Des Moines · Listed: 16 offices, 9 available now · From: $330 per month · Team up to: 7

Pick this one if your drive comes from the east and you want to stay close to the interstate.

How far ahead should you ask about an office?

Sooner than a booking, later than a lease. Not every office space West Des Moines listing is instant. 55 of the 80 listed offices show no future start date, so for those the limit is how fast you decide rather than how fast the room frees up. The rest carry a date, and several of those sit months out, which is the part people miss when they assume a flexible office is always instant.

Work it in this order.

1. Fix your headcount first, then read the team ceiling on each listing. The ceiling is a maximum, not a target.
2. Decide which side of the metro your commute comes from, because all four sit west of downtown and the drive is the real differentiator.
3. Send the request through Wezoo with your start date in it. The monthly figure comes back scoped to that date.

4. Ask to walk the floor before you sign. A photo shows the finish; it does not show the neighbour on the other side of the partition.

Best areas for office space West Des Moines searchers

The four addresses sit in four distinct pockets, and the choice is mostly about which road you arrive on. One Corporate Place on 42nd Street sits in the office cluster that runs along the Westown Parkway corridor, which is where most of the suburb’s conventional office stock is concentrated too.

1601 West Lakes Parkway is further west again, in the newer West Lakes development near the Mercy West Lakes campus. West Glen Town Center is the southern option, on Wild Rose Lane, in a mixed use block where the ground floor is shops. 1200 Valley West Drive is the eastern edge, nearest the Valley West Mall side of the metro, and the one Wezoo files under Des Moines.

Worth knowing for anyone weighing the suburb against the city: the federal statistical area is literally named Des Moines-West Des Moines, and it spans six counties including both Polk and Dallas. Clients reading your address will not treat a West Des Moines suite as out of town.

Office space West Des Moines: FAQ

How many office space West Des Moines options does Wezoo list?

Four buildings and eighty private offices across them. Fifty five of those eighty carry no future start date, so they are available now. Three of the four addresses are filed under West Des Moines and one, 1200 Valley West Drive, is filed under Des Moines.

What does a private office in West Des Moines cost per month?

Listed starting prices run from $165 to $2,120 per month. Those are starting figures rather than quotes. You send one request through Wezoo and the operator returns a monthly price scoped to your team size and your start date.

Can I rent an office in West Des Moines for just one month?

Yes. Every one of the eighty listings carries a minimum term of one month. That is the clearest difference between this model and a brokered lease, where terms are measured in years.

Which building has the most offices available right now?

West Glen Town Center on Wild Rose Lane. Twenty of its twenty six listed offices carry no future start date. One Corporate Place is next with fourteen of eighteen.

Is 1200 Valley West Drive actually in West Des Moines?

Wezoo’s records file it under Des Moines, not West Des Moines, and this guide labels it that way rather than claiming it as a West Des Moines address. It sits on Valley West Drive on the western side of the metro, which is why it is worth seeing alongside the other three if your drive comes from the east.

Who operates these offices?

All four addresses are Regus buildings. Worth saying plainly: in this suburb the serviced office supply on Wezoo comes from a single operator, so the choice between them is a choice of building and commute rather than of house style.

The short version

Four serviced buildings, eighty rooms, one month terms and a price band from $165 to $2,120. If the brokered market is quoting you a floor when you need a room, this is the shorter path. Pick the building your commute likes, read the team ceiling, and send one request. That is the office space West Des Moines market in one paragraph.
