Tucked back among the trees, this charming bungalow feels like a peaceful retreat while still being just minutes from everything Alton has to offer. If you've been searching for a home with character, privacy, and a setting that's hard to find at this price point, this one is worth a look. Inside, you'll find a welcoming living room with beautiful original built-ins, touches of exposed brick that add warmth and personality, and an easy, comfortable layout that feels like home from the moment you walk in. The wraparound porch is the perfect spot for your morning coffee or winding down in the evening, surrounded by mature trees and a backyard that offers a surprising amount of privacy. The detached two-car garage and additional off-street parking provide plenty of space for vehicles, hobbi es, or extra storage. Conveniently located near downtown Alton, local restaurants, shopping, Olin Park and Piazza Park, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds—a quiet, tucked-away setting without sacrificing convenience. Whether you're looking for your first home, a place to downsize, or simply a home with charm you won't find in new construction, 522 Shelly Avenue is ready to welcome you home. Professional interior photos will be taken on Aug 6 and uploaded as soon as possible! Showings start Aug 10.
