Leland sits just across the Cape Fear and Brunswick Rivers from downtown Wilmington, and most of its waterfront is river, creek or lakefront rather than beach. Buyers come here for newer homes, golf and lake communities and a short drive to Wilmington, with a handful of true riverfront lots for boaters.
Leland waterfront listings range from lake and pond-front lots to deep-water homes on the rivers. Lake and pond homes are the most affordable; navigable river frontage costs the most.
