About this home

Unleash your vision in Middletown with 5,000 square feet of space on 3 floors, with a basement and a treasure trove of a garage! Five bedrooms, three full baths, two half baths, a center and back staircase and main floor laundry are just the beginning of the features. The kitchen was a total remodel from the studs out in ’19. All the stainless appliances remain – refrigerator, microwave, Bosch dishwasher, instant-on hot water AND Wolf gas range! The third floor (1,250 square feet!!!!!) is a wide open, finished, “imagination station”, includes a home office/family room and fifth bedroom. During the past 15 years, the sellers have lovingly transformed the house. Wiring, plumbing, on demand water heater, painting, flooring, adding baths, usb outlets in mudroom, landscaping, all while living in the house with their family! The yard and the outside of the house have received the same dedicated care and attention. The warm red brick blends with the welcoming wrap around porch. A second screened porch is off the kitchen, at the back. A large portion of the yard is enclosed with a privacy fence, including a remote controlled rolling gate across the back drive, creating an oasis for family, friends and pets. The detached garage, while being sold in an “as is” condition, is a beautiful 2-story brick structure. Think art studio, workshop or the ultimate garden shed to further enhance the plantings in the yard. Middletown Alton is a lovely area to walk – to Haskell Park for the Sunday evening band concerts and to Duke’s bakery (If you walk, can you treat yourself with a donut?) The one and a half story, detached garage, has many possibilities. Think art studio, workshop, or the ultimate garden shed to further enhance the plantings in the yard. Many repairs are coming soon …. The south foundation will be repaired, the charred rafters on the second floor (from a long ago fire) will be sistered for support, the flat roof will be replaced, the damaged interior insulation will be removed, the front and back gutters will be repaired, and the garage will be cleared of everything but wood items that should remain with the house.
