Nearly 2 acres, a private pool, no HOA, and a detached garage/workshop—all in Raleigh! If you're looking for space, privacy, and the freedom to make a home your own, 6512 Bakersfield Drive offers a rare opportunity in a convenient Southwest Raleigh location. Set back on approximately 1.89 wooded acres, this property feels wonderfully private while remaining close to shopping, dining, major roads, and everything Southwest Raleigh and Cary have to offer. The outdoor setting is the star: enjoy the private pool, spacious yard, mature trees, and plenty of room to garden, entertain, play, or simply relax. A detached two-car garage/workshop provides exceptional space for vehicles, hobbies, projects, or additional storage—and there's no HOA to limit how you use your property. Inside, the 2,243-square-foot home offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a flexible bonus/flex space, sunroom, and multiple living areas. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level, with additional bedrooms and flexible space upstairs. The home has excellent bones and several important updates, including a 2023 roof, while leaving an opportunity for the next owner to personalize the finishes and make the space their own. This is not a typical subdivision property—and that's the point. Nearly two acres, a pool, detached garage/workshop, privacy, and no HOA are increasingly difficult to find at this price point. If you've been looking for a property with room to spread out and the opportunity to build equity through updates over time, this one deserves a closer look. Come see the land, pool, privacy, and possibilities for yourself.
