About This Home

As of July 2026

Skip the Wait - Better Than New Construction, With Every Upgrade Already Done. Welcome to 12601 S. Poplar Crossing, a stunning Essex model built in 2022 and nestled in the highly desirable Chatham Square subdivision in Plainfield. With 3,114 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this nearly new home delivers the feel of brand-new construction without the timeline, the guesswork, or the upgrade negotiations - everything has been done, and done beautifully. From the moment you step inside, intentional design is evident at every turn. A private home office greets you just off the entry, while a tucked-away staircase and dedicated coat closet keep the main living areas polished and uncluttered. The heart of the home unfolds into a breathtaking open-concept layout featuring a chef's kitchen adorned with upgraded quartz countertops and a matching quartz backsplash, an oversized center island perfect for gathering, and a sun-filled breakfast nook that flows effortlessly into the spacious family room - an ideal setup for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. A rare and coveted builder upgrade, the sunroom addition sets this home apart from anything else on the market - a tranquil retreat for morning coffee, quiet evenings, or simply soaking in the natural light. The private mud room entry - complete with a walk-in closet - keeps daily routines organized and clutter-free, while a secondary hallway near the breakfast area leads to a versatile den, powder room, and direct backyard access. Upstairs, the Essex floor plan masterfully balances space and privacy. The owner's suite commands its own rear corner of the home, featuring a spa-inspired en-suite with dual-sink vanity, deep soaking tub, separate shower, and an expansive walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms - each positioned so no two share a wall - deliver exceptional privacy for family or guests. The generous loft serves as the perfect flex space: playroom, media room, second office - you decide. Upper-floor laundry, a full hallway bath, and a linen closet complete this level with practical elegance. The 9-foot lookout basement offers tremendous future potential and is ready for your vision, while the fully fenced backyard creates a private outdoor sanctuary. A 3-car garage handles all the vehicles, storage, and weekend toys with ease. Wired for modern living, this smart home features smart Wi-Fi throughout - seamlessly connected, effortlessly controlled. Located just minutes from Chatham Square's neighborhood parks, top-rated schools, downtown Plainfield's charming shops and dining, and convenient commuter routes, this address checks every box. 2022 Built | 3,114 Sq Ft | 4 Bedrooms | 2.5 Baths | Den | Loft | Sunroom | 3-Car Garage | Smart Home | Fully Fenced |
