Linden Home is a new Premium account feature in the Second Life virtual world owned and managed by Linden Lab. We've provided it in the spirit of helping Residents own land, and it includes a ready-to-move-in home while belonging to a themed community.

Introducing Linden Homes

Linden Home regions are located in the new Nascera continent. In addition to Support access, a monthly Linden Dollar (L$) stipend, and 512m² land allocation without usage fees, Premium accounts now include Linden Homes! Use your included tier towards a Linden Home in one of our four themed communities. Receive land for free with the home you select, ready and waiting for you to move in!

Linden Homes are for residential use only and provide an opportunity for Premium account holders to own land and a home to gain home ownership experience.
