506 E 5th St Alton, IL 62002

This beautiful Middletown home offers the perfect blend of modern updates and the timeless character you expect from this historic neighborhood. It sits on a quiet brick street within easy walking distance to Haskell Park, local coffee shops, restaurants, farmers’ markets, and the riverfront.

The covered front porch leads into an inviting foyer with a stunning open staircase. Tall ceilings and abundant natural light enhance the warmth of the home, and hardwood floors run through much of the main level. The dining room features pocket doors and an ornate fireplace with original woodwork, adding to the home’s charm. The updated kitchen includes a center island with range and seating, and it opens to a lower-level composite deck. The fenced backyard offers low-maintenance landscaping for easy living.

Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms with large closets, a built-in bookshelf, along with access to a generous composite upper deck overlooking nearby Barth Park. From the front of the home, enjoy a lovely view of the Clark Bridge. The roof is only 5 years old, providing peace of mind. A walk-up attic and clean basement offer potential for additional living space, and laundry hookups are available both upstairs and in the basement. The refrigerator, range/oven, dishwasher, washer and dryer remain with the home. Open house on Saturday, December 6th 12:00-1:30. Individual showings begin after the open house.
