Why Steeple Run
What Buyers Pay For Here
Steeple Run sells on three things: the schools, the swim club, and mature lots you can’t get in newer subdivisions.
District 203 Schools Inside the Neighborhood
Steeple Run Elementary sits inside the neighborhood, and homes feed to Jefferson Junior High and Naperville North High School in Naperville District 203. For many buyers, that alone decides it. Confirm school assignments for a specific address with the district.
The Swim Club & Community
The Steeple Run swim club is the summer center of the neighborhood, and the neighborhood association keeps an active calendar. Read more in my Steeple Run swim club guide.
Naperville or Lisle? Incorporated or Not?
Steeple Run straddles the Naperville and Lisle line, and some homes are in unincorporated DuPage County. That affects property taxes, city services and transfer stamps at closing, so it’s worth knowing exactly which one your home is before you price it.
Jake’s Insider Tip
Updated vs. Original Is the Whole Story
“Steeple Run homes are now 45 to 50 years old. Two homes on the same street can sell far apart depending on the kitchen, baths, windows and mechanicals. When I price a home here, I match it against sales in the same condition, not just the same model.”
