The Home That Grows With Your Family — 10719 Waycross Drive, Huntersville NC

There's a conversation a lot of families are having right now that nobody quite has a name for yet.

It goes something like this: Mom and Dad are getting older. Or our adult kid is moving back after college. Or we just want to stop paying for hotel rooms every time family visits from out of state. Or — and this one comes up more than you'd think — we just need a second space in the house where someone can truly have their own life.

The real estate industry calls it "multi-generational living." But really it's just families figuring out how to be close without being on top of each other.

10719 Waycross Drive in Huntersville was built for exactly that.

Two Complete Living Spaces, One Address

Most homes that advertise an "in-law suite" mean a bedroom with a bathroom attached. That's not what this is.

The basement level of this home is a fully independent apartment. It has its own kitchen. Its own living room. Its own dining area. A large bedroom. A full bathroom. And critically — its own private entrance from outside. If you want the person living downstairs to never have to come through the main house, they don't have to.

That's not a suite. That's a second home beneath the same roof.

The basement also includes a workshop and storage space for those who need it, and walks out directly to a covered patio that looks out onto a creek-backed, tree-lined backyard. It's private, quiet, and genuinely livable — not a converted storage room dressed up for photos.

The Main Home: 2,897 Square Feet, Thoughtfully Laid Out

Upstairs from the basement, the main home offers its own complete life. The main level leads with a primary suite — something that's genuinely hard to find in this neighborhood and this price range — which means the person who owns this home doesn't have to climb stairs to get to their bedroom. That matters more than most buyers realize until it matters a lot.

The two-story great room with its stone gas fireplace is the kind of space that photographs well but feels even better in person. The kitchen has been updated with quartz counters and stainless appliances. There's a dedicated home office, a formal dining room, a main-level laundry room with a sink, and a half bath for guests.

Upstairs, four more bedrooms (one currently configured as a bonus room) and a full bathroom give everyone room to spread out.

The Updates That Matter

This home has had the right things replaced in the right order: a new roof in 2022, two HVAC systems updated in 2021 and 2022, and a full deck replacement in 2023. These are the expensive, unsexy items that buyers should care about most, and they're done.

The Outdoor Spaces

The .31-acre lot backs to a creek with mature trees — the kind of backyard that creates genuine separation from the rest of the neighborhood. The outdoor living stack here is real: a front porch, a main-level deck, a basement-level walk-out patio, and a private stone fireplace tucked into the trees. It's designed to be used, not just photographed.

Skybrook and the Schools

Skybrook is one of the better-known communities in Huntersville for a reason. The neighborhood includes walking trails, a playground, and common areas. Optional memberships to Skybrook Golf Club cover golf, tennis, swimming, and fitness. The schools — Cox Mill Elementary, Harris Middle, and Cox Mill High — are consistently rated among the strongest in Cabarrus County.

The Bottom Line

At $749,900, this home is priced at $180 per square foot across 4,155 finished square feet — including a second fully functional living unit that would cost significantly more to rent separately in this market.

If your family has outgrown the idea of a traditional single-family home — or you're planning ahead for a future that might need more flexibility — 10719 Waycross Drive is worth a serious look.
