West Loop Lubbock community with new homes
As part of Lubbock’s first westward expansion, Westchester forged a path for Lubbock’s continued growth trajectory. Built on land acquired by the city in 1984, the neighborhood is made up of mostly new developments with homes constructed in the last 20 years and more development on the horizon. “Lubbock is a very interesting city. “it’s a city that’s built in the middle of open land so we don’t have the constraints of many other cities even our size to redevelop and build,” says Wilson Bowling, a neighborhood planner with the City of Lubbock. “We just continue to build out.” Westchester, like other neighborhoods west of Loop 289, is known for the feeling of having a more tranquil environment while being within 15 minutes of anywhere in the city and backed with strong schools and access to shopping. “The allure is things get quieter. Even though you have the amenities close, you still feel like you’re further out,” Bowling adds.
Newly built traditional ranch-style homes
Houses in Westchester are on the newer end, constructed from the early 2000s to the 2020s. Traditional ranch-style homes with three or four bedrooms and attached garages make up the bulk of the neighborhood. Most homes come with a brick exterior and modern interior design concepts. Homes here list for between $200,000 and $300,000.
The streets of Westchester are full of new traditional-style homes.
