About this home
Welcome to 579 Watercress, where thoughtful design and everyday functionality come together in this beautifully maintained three-story Extended Bowman, ideally positioned on a premium corner lot within the award-winning school district 204. Offering over 2400 square feet of expanded living space, this 3 bedroom, 2.1 bath home stands out for its two-story sunroom expansion, rare third-floor loft with private rooftop terrace, and one of the best lot locations in the community - providing open park views, added privacy, and exceptional natural light throughout the day. The main level is designed for how people actually live. The open layout features a spacious living/dinning area, a convenient powder room, and is anchored by a true chef's kitchen with 42" white cabinetry with crown molding, a large curved island with seating for four, quartz counters, KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop with wall-mounted vented hood, french-door smart refrigerator, deep farmhouse sink, and ceramic herringbone backsplash. The adjacent sunroom extension creates a flexible dining or lounge space surrounded by windows. Just off the kitchen, a mudroom with custom built-ins provides a clean, organized transition to the attached 2-car garage, which includes added storage and a city-inspected Tesla EV charger. Upstairs, the second level offers three generously sized bedrooms, all with walk-in closets, along with a full bath and a dedicated laundry room with side-by-side Samsung washer and dryer. The primary suite is tucked at the rear of the home, offering a quieter setting with park-facing views, an extended double-sized walk-in closet, and an upgraded en-suite bath featuring a dual quartz vanity, modern square sinks, custom tile flooring, and a large European-style walk-in shower with built-in bench. The third floor adds a level of flexibility that's hard to find - ideal for a second living area, home office, or guest space. From here, step out onto the private ~200 SF rooftop terrace, an ideal setting to unwind or entertain while enjoying open park views. Throughout the home, upgrades enhance both comfort and modern living, including wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring, solid wood staircases, 9' ceilings, recessed lighting, designer fixtures, and custom window treatments, including motorized shades in the living room. Smart home integrations further elevate daily living, including an app-enabled keypad front door lock, smart garage control, Google Nest exterior cameras, smart thermostats with temp sensors, and hardwired WiFi access points on every level for consistent connectivity. Additional highlights include Lennox high-efficiency furnace, upgraded insulation between floors and walls for enhanced sound control, builder-installed radon mitigation system, and the remainder of Pulte's 10-year structural warranty, transferable to the new owner. SimpliSafe security system components are also included. Located just south of 75th Street and west of Route 59, this home offers convenient access to everyday essentials and major destinations, including downtown Naperville (approximately 4 miles), Block 59, Costco, Whole Foods, Fox Valley Mall, and the upcoming Life Time Fitness. Commuters will appreciate close proximity to Route 59 and both Naperville and Aurora Metra stations, as well as quick access to I-88. Homes with this combination of location, layout, and level of finishes are rarely available - explore the 3D tour and experience everything this exceptional home has to offer!...
