The Opportunity
Mountain Views. River Frontage. Your Home — Built the Way You Want It.
This is a rare chance to own a brand-new home on the North Fork New River — perched on a ridge with long-range mountain and water views, on 1.39 private acres in one of Western NC's most scenic communities.
Lot 19 River Landing Way sits in River Rock Subdivision in Lansing, NC — a quiet Ashe County community just 8 miles from West Jefferson. The lot features direct river frontage along the North Fork New River, ridge elevation with sweeping views, and the kind of natural setting that draws people to the NC mountains. The lot has been cleared and is ready to build on.
The planned home is a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath modular construction with 1,685 square feet on the main level plus a 1,008 square foot unfinished walkout basement — giving buyers a move-in ready home with serious room to expand. Listed at $550,000 by Ninja Realty's James Hutson.

New Construction — Designed for Mountain Living
The planned home features a thoughtful layout built for the mountain setting. The main level opens into a large kitchen, dining area, and living room with a convenient half bath. The primary suite occupies its own wing with a walk-in shower, garden tub, and double vanities. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located upstairs.
Below, a 1,008 square foot unfinished walkout basement offers serious potential — finish it as additional living space, a recreation room, a home office, or leave it as storage. The choice is yours.
The exterior is planned as board-and-batten Smart Board siding in white with black window trim, wood-tone porch beams, and a shingled roof. A covered front porch faces the river — the ideal place to take in the views every morning. A craftsman-style side porch adds additional outdoor living space.
Some colors and design details can be adjusted to the buyer's taste, and upgrade options are available.
