Welcome to 602 Lyon Tree Lane—a spacious one-story home with a rare, finished basement along with tons of unfinished basement storage, tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in South Durham. Just minutes from the American Tobacco Trail, RDU, RTP, and Southpoint Mall, this home offers the ideal balance of privacy, convenience, and lifestyle. From the moment you arrive, the exterior makes a strong impression with low-maintenance vinyl siding, stone accents, and a welcoming covered front porch that overlooks the peaceful cul-de-sac. Inside, you'll be greeted by soaring 12-foot ceilings, crown molding, and wainscoting that establish an elegant tone. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Rich engineered wood floors flow through the foyer, dining room, great room, breakfast nook, and kitchen. The formal dining room is framed by decorative columns, while the open-concept kitchen overlooks the living area and features Corian countertops, a tile backsplash, 42-inch cabinets with crown molding, recessed lighting, and a gas range replaced in 2025. The adjoining breakfast nook, with bayed windows, offers a bright and cheerful space to enjoy your morning coffee while taking in views of the private backyard. Just beyond, the screened porch provides a quiet retreat—ideal for birdwatching, reading, or entertaining. The great room is filled with natural light from transom windows and anchored by a cozy corner gas-log fireplace. At the front of the home, a bedroom serves perfectly as a guest room or home office, with easy access to a full bathroom that features tile floors and a transom window for added natural light. Set privately at the back of the house, the primary suite is a true retreat with a tray ceiling, crown molding, and triple windows. The ensuite bathroom includes a garden soaking tub, separate walk-in shower with handheld sprayer, double sinks, a private water closet, tile flooring, and a generous walk-in closet. Downstairs, the partially finished basement greatly expands the home's potential. It includes a full bedroom, full bathroom, and a large recreation space—ideal for guests, a media or game room, or a private office. Multiple unfinished walk-in storage rooms and direct access to the patio add practicality and functionality. Additional features include a tiled laundry room, a two-car garage with separate doors, a pantry, coat closet, and pull-down attic storage.
