Dear Land Buyer,

Are you looking for a real, buildable urban lot inside an established American city, at a price that has almost disappeared from metro markets?

This lot is for you if you are a small builder, an owner-builder, or an investor who wants paved access, city infrastructure, and a 30-minute drive to St. Louis.

It is not for you if you want rural acreage, mobile-home zoning, or recreational escape land. Leroy Avenue is an urban residential street in Alton's east-end grid.

This 0.28-acre lot (about 60 by 200 feet, roughly 12,000 square feet) sits on Leroy Avenue in Alton's east residential grid, Madison County, Illinois, about 25 blocks east of downtown Alton and about 30 minutes from downtown St. Louis.

The lot fronts a paved, city-maintained street. That gives you a defined, maintained route to the lot, not an unpaved rural drive.

City water and sewer serve the Alton municipal grid, which covers most of the residential city. Confirm service to this specific parcel with Illinois American Water and the City of Alton before you build. Where available, municipal water and sewer remove the well and septic cost, roughly $12,000 to $36,000, that rural lots carry before you break ground.

Zoned residential. In plain English, Alton allows single-family construction consistent with the neighborhood, subject to city permits. Illinois lists a 0.5-acre minimum for some listing purposes and this lot is 0.28 acres, so confirm your specific plans, buildability, and any minimum-lot or variance requirements with the City of Alton Planning and Development Department before you build.

No HOA, no CDD, and no special assessments per public records.

Ameren Illinois electric and natural gas serve the Alton grid, a standard new-service connection.

The lot is substantially flat and slab-ready, with light clearing at most. Verify the FEMA flood zone at the GPS below before you build.

People buy urban infill here because the total cost to build is far lower than a rural lot at the same headline price, in a stable Metro-East St. Louis city. Leroy Avenue is one of three Alton parcels we own. Ask about the Miller Street and Belle Street lots if you want a cluster.

Buy to secure it at the cash price, or place a $50 good-faith hold to lock it while you decide. The hold is non-refundable and credits in full toward your purchase. Message us with code LEROY to talk owner-finance terms.

Note: All information is from public records and independent research. Buyers should confirm zoning, buildability, utilities, flood zone, and taxes directly with the City of Alton and Madison County before making plans. A one-time $495 document fee is paid at closing and covers deed preparation, recording, and administrative costs.
