North Shore has a story worth telling. Faodail, the brick house built around 1825 for John Craghead on his Roanoke River plantation, still stands in The Waterfront community. When Smith Mountain Lake filled behind its dam in 1963, much of the old plantation went under the water, and the house is now one of the few antebellum brick buildings left anywhere around the lake. The land was part of a 730 acre grant along the Roanoke River made in 1794, and the house was saved on its own small lot when The Waterfront was built in the 1990s. That's from the Virginia Department of Historic Resources.
North Shore is a community in Franklin County. The Census Bureau counted 3,332 people here in 2020.
