Most lakeside properties near Raleigh ask you to choose between seclusion and convenience. These two contiguous Falls Lake parcels do not ask. The lakeside property you have been describing for years — 17.67 acres on Falls Lake in Wake County, the Research Triangle on your doorstep, seclusion permanently protected by adjacent conserved land, and the flexibility to build the custom home, private estate, or lakeside development you have always envisioned — exists, and it is these two contiguous parcels: one carrying a prior soil evaluation confirming a viable homesite with clear easement access via Big Pine Road and Scottie Drive, the other delivering the natural privacy buffer that lakeside buyers spend years searching for and rarely find this near Raleigh and Durham. Whether you are building the lakeside home you deserves, establishing a private estate that defines your legacy, or exploring a lakeside development opportunity where Research Triangle demand and protected natural surroundings converge — a combination this market produces once in a generation — these parcels rise to meet every vision with the kind of location that Wake County buyers recognize instantly and act on without hesitation. Top-rated Wake County schools. All site documents, deed records, and full deal room materials available upon request. Seventeen acres on Falls Lake this near the Research Triangle do not come around twice. This is the one.

19.61 Acre Homesite on Beaver Dam Creek Nestled in northern Wake County just feet from the Granville County line, and minutes from Beaver Dam Lake, this remarkable ±19.61-acre tract offers a rare opportunity to own one of the last large private homesites of its kind in the area. Located along Beaver Dam Road near the intersection of Rock Spring Church Road, the property combines natural beauty, privacy, and convenience in one exceptional setting. A scenic stretch of Beaver Dam Creek winds through the back of the property, creating a peaceful backdrop with mature timber, rolling terrain, and abundant wildlife. The surrounding area is known for its unique geological features, including the Jonesboro Fault system, an area long studied for groundwater and well development characteristics in western Wake County. The property includes approximately ±2 acres on the north side of Beaver Dam Road, with the remaining ±17 acres situated on the south side of the road, offering a unique layout with flexibility for future use, privacy, and enjoyment of the land's natural features. Whether you're envisioning a custom estate, family retreat, hobby farm, or recreational getaway, this tract provides the space and setting to bring your vision to life. A portion of the property across Beaver Dam Creek has already been evaluated for septic suitability and offers soils supportive of a subsurface drip irrigation septic system. Additional areas of the property have not yet been tested and may offer further homesite or septic opportunities for a future owner to explore. Large acreage homesites in Wake County are becoming increasingly difficult to find — especially those offering creek frontage, privacy, and a convenient location with easy access to Wake Forest, Creedmoor, Durham, and Raleigh.
