Property Description

Welcome to 8017 Morrell Lane — a gorgeous 3BR+, 2.5BA home in sought-after Southpoint Terrace, where comfort and convenience meet in a peaceful, tree-lined setting. The inviting covered front porch and dramatic, high-ceilinged entryway open into a bright, open-concept main level featuring engineered hardwoods, designer lighting, fresh paint, and graceful archways that add architectural character throughout. At the heart of the home, the kitchen shines with quartz countertops, a chic tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, gas range, island, and abundant cabinet and prep space. The adjoining dining area and living room are framed by windows overlooking the tranquil backyard and wooded views. A French-door flex room offers the ideal setup for a home office, guest room, fourth bedroom, or creative studio, while an updated half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, a versatile loft provides extra living or lounging space. The expansive primary suite is a peaceful retreat with calming tree views and features a relaxing garden tub, separate shower, double vanity, and an oversized walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms — each with double windows and walk-in closets — share a spacious full bath, while a linen closet and large laundry room add convenience. Outside, the private backyard is perfect for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the sights and sounds of nature. Bird enthusiasts will love the variety of species that visit throughout the year — from chickadees and blue jays to wrens, finches, robins, and cardinals. This private, nature-filled oasis offers a rare backdrop for such a central location. Additional features include a freshly painted garage with three overhead storage systems, plus two exterior storage spaces at the back of the home. Notable updates include a new roof (2022), Lennox HVAC (2018), new carpet, new paint, and new lighting — truly move-in ready. Southpoint Terrace offers easy living with low HOA fees that cover front and backyard landscaping, in addition to so much more. This patio home does not share living-space walls with neighbors and is just a short walk to the American Tobacco Trail. With its thoughtful updates, natural beauty, and prime location near Southpoint, Duke, UNC, RTP, RDU, and Jordan Lake, this home is a true South Durham gem.
