This house can check all your boxes! Riverview, historic Christian Hill neighborhood, private pool, minutes from the Clark Bridge, walking distance to downtown Alton shopping, dining and entertainment. Vintage charm begins with the stunning Ginko tree standing tall in front. Formal living and dining rooms, entry foyer with a grand newel post marking the staircase. The kitchen has beautiful hardwood cabinets with marble counters and the river view! A heated and cooled sunporch further enhances the opportunity to view both the pool and the river. There is also a pool house with a half bath and kitchenette.
On the second floor you will find the 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths (there is a half bath on the main floor) and a loft above what is currently the owner’s studio, but is actually a bedroom with best view.
Wood burning insert in the living room fireplace. Heat is a combination of boiler (2020) and forced air gas (HVAC 2023) – please note the unique round radiator in the living room which appears to be an art deco piece! Roof 2017, water heater 2008. Main floor laundry, immediately off the kitchen. Plenty of off street parking. The former garage is small, short in height, and would need a new door.
