Rarely available — own both Lots 6 and 27 together for a combined 5.72 acres of privacy and possibility in the gated community of The Peninsula at Lake James. This expansive, wooded, and gently sloped acreage offers sweeping mountain views — including beautiful long-range views of Linville Gorge — and room to design the ultimate private estate or family compound, with paved private-road access and a 1,600 SF minimum to build.
Life at The Peninsula includes an outstanding array of amenities: a community pool, a pavilion for entertaining and events, a community dock with paddlesport launch for enjoying Lake James, boat storage, and dedicated picnic and recreation areas including community dock for day use and docking — all set behind a secure, gated entrance. Community well water is available, with septic needed for construction.
With nearly 6 combined acres, this is a unique chance to secure significant acreage in a premier gated lake community, offering both privacy and resort-style living just steps from Lake James. Short-term rentals are allowed, opening the door to strong investment potential in addition to a private family retreat, and the neighborhood also permits ADUs and guest houses for added flexibility.
