5212 Richland Woods Drive, Alton, IL, 62002

5 bd | 4 ba | 4,870 sq ft | Ranch
Subdivision: Richland Woods
Custom-built 5-bedroom, 4-bath home nestled on 1.8 acres in Richland Woods, offering a sprawling layout of 4,870 square feet, beautiful craftsmanship, and plenty of space both inside and out. One of the home’s most distinctive features is the handpicked brick, more than 130 years old, salvaged from a church in Bethalto. Dental molding, an abundance of windows, and beautifully established landscaping add to the character and appeal throughout. The sellers have thoughtfully maintained and updated the home over the years, including a new roof in 2014, new furnace in 2009, new AC in 2024, and replacement of all exterior doors, including the front door most recently in 2026. Home features central vac system and 9' ceilings on the main floor. The eat-in kitchen was completely remodeled in 2020 with handcrafted Amish cherry cabinetry, a paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator, and appliances replaced in 2020. A large center island with a secondary sink provides excellent prep space and functionality. Just off the kitchen is a screened-in, three-season porch finished with porcelain tile—an inviting space to enjoy the private surroundings. The main level also offers a formal dining room and a front sitting room that could easily serve as an office, playroom, or additional gathering space. The spacious living room features vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, and custom built-ins. The primary suite includes a tray ceiling and a substantial ensuite with dual vanities, a separate jetted tub, and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms are located on the main level. The finished walk-out lower level adds even more living space, with two substantial bedrooms, a family room with gas fireplace and Heatilator, game room area, and wet bar. Two separate walk-out locations provide convenient access to the private yard. An oversized 3-car garage offers exceptional storage and workspace, while the side-entry driveway provides abundant additional parking. A unique property with room to spread out, thoughtful updates, and timeless character in a beautiful Richland Woods setting.
