6816 Cool Pond Road
Raleigh, NC 27613A one-of-a-kind opportunity in North Raleigh, this traditional yet thoughtfully updated property delivers flexibility, privacy, and incredible potential for multigenerational living or a home-based business. Set on 1.15 acres, the home blends classic character with modern improvements and a layout designed for real-life functionality. Inside, freshly painted interiors, hardwoods and tile in the main living areas, updated lighting, and brand-new carpet upstairs (2025) create a clean and inviting atmosphere. The family room's vaulted ceilings offer an airy, open feel, while the first-floor primary suite provides everyday convenience. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a spacious bonus room complete with its own fireplace and storage. The finished basement expands the home's possibilities in a big way. This walk-out level doubles as a full studio apartment with a kitchenette, full bath, flex space, wine storage, private patio, separate entrance, and dedicated parking—an ideal setup for extended family, long-term guests, or anyone needing independence and privacy. Beyond the main home, the detached oversized workshop/garage adds even more to love. Above it sits a second finished studio with its own kitchenette and newer HVAC, creating the perfect environment for a creative studio, remote office, or income-producing space. Outdoor living takes center stage with a beautiful in-ground pool, hot tub, composite decking, and professionally designed landscaping complete with a cooking area with Wilmington Grill. Both main home and workshop roofs were replaced in 2023, and features like a tankless water heater in main house, leaf-guard gutters, and a whole-house generator reflect the care and investment poured into this property. Homes with this level of flexibility, privacy, and usable space rarely come along—especially in a location this convenient to North Raleigh amenities, RTP, and major commuter routes. This is more than a home; it's a lifestyle opportunity with room to live, work, grow, and entertain.
