End of road privacy with spectacular views of the Sphinx and the Madison Mountain Range is just the start of what this house has to offer. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is 2656 +/- sq ft and sits on 5.4 acres in the Shining Mountain subdivision. The main floor living area is light, bright and open with large windows and two sliding glass doors taking in the incredible views. The terracotta tile floors and the rough pine walls throughout the main floor are warm and inviting. The floors are especially toasty in the winter with the radiant floor heat. The kitchen has hickory cabinets with ceramic tile counter tops and ample storage. The laundry and mechanical room is just off the kitchen for convenience. The spacious primary bedroom is on the main level and has access to the patio as well as an ensuite bathroom and large walk-in closet. The upstairs has a cozy loft area perfect for an office, tv, or play area, as well as two very large guest rooms with walk-in closets and a guest bathroom. There are raised garden beds and beautifully developed perennial flower beds around the house with UG sprinklers and drip lines to some of the trees. Shining Mountain home owners have access behind a private locked gate to Haypress Lakes and recreation area as well as public land in the Gravelly Mountains.
