1760 & 1768 Linville Avenue Rare opportunity to own two original Lake James cabins on one property just minutes from the water. Nestled along a quaint gravel road lined with historic cabins that rarely come on the market, this unique property offers character, history, and income potential in one of Lake James' most desirable areas. The main cabin features beautiful original stonework, a gas-log fireplace, updated bath, mini-split HVAC, screened porch, covered front porch, and outdoor living spaces including a stone patio and fire pit. An additional lower-level basement area (accessed from the screened porch) provides laundry, recreation space, and storage, though ceiling heights are lower than standard. Lovingly restored while preserving its rustic charm, the cabin offers a cozy retreat that feels worlds away, yet remains close to everything Lake James has to offer. A second detached building includes a vintage one-bedroom apartment with the feel of a writer's retreat. Rich with nostalgic character, it offers guest accommodations or rental possibilities and could benefit from additional work and updating to suit the next owner's vision. The building also includes additional lower-level space with exterior access, plus a garage/workshop and loft for canoes, kayaks, bikes, and outdoor gear. Located approximately one mile from Mimosa Boat Landing and close to the Fonta Flora Trail, Shortoff Mountain, Linville Gorge, and Lake James State Park, this property offers convenient access to boating, hiking, and recreation while sitting only 1, 200 feet from Lake James (straight-line distance). With no HOA and no known community restrictions, opportunities like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find around Lake James. Many of these cabins are passed down through generations. Whether you're searching for a lake getaway, investment property, established short-term rental opportunity, or a piece of Lake James history, this property offers endless possibilities. Most furnishings can convey with an acceptable offer. While thoughtfully updated over the years, the cabins retain the character, craftsmanship, and charm of a bygone era. Property is being sold as-is. Property is shown by appointment only. Please do not visit or walk the property without a scheduled showing. Seller is listing agent. Property is also listed as Residential Multi-Unit: MLS #4397908. SHOWINGS START JULY 1st.
