Homonyms & antonyms ...

... Homonyms (or homophones): two words with the same sound (and sometimes the same spelling), but different meanings.

Antonyms: two words with the same sound (and sometimes the same spelling), but opposite meanings.

Raise & raze is a good pair. I cannot think of another that meets both criteria.
