Sold my rental property and land

I acquired a small home on six acres in 2012 and immediately began renting the home. We decided to sell the house and 1 acre and then sold the remaining 5 acres to another buyer. I had the five acres surveyed out of the original plot. Can I lump both sales together seeing that the property has been a whole the entire time I've owned it? Or, should I list the house and 1 acre as the sale of the rental property and list the sale of the 5 acres as the sale of an investment property?  Please help!  I'm in Tennessee so there are not any state taxes to worry about.

since the rental property sale reporting is through schedule E while the land sale would be reported through the 8949,  I would not lump them together. also if you got a 1099-S for either or both sales lumping could cause matching issues.

Thank you for your feedback! I was leaning in this way. Seeing that I did get two separate 1099-S documents, I though it could potentially cause a red flag after being submitted as only one transaction. Thanks again.
