One of the largest neighborhoods in Fayetteville, North Carolina, Terry Sanford sits in the northern section of the city and is adjacent to downtown. With its flat green landscape shadowed by trees, it’s an attractive community for those who want easy access to the rest of the town.

The neighborhood's single-family and multifamily homes range from $125,000 for a small ranch-style or townhouse up to over $1 million for a midcentury modern home, so there’s no shortage of budget and style options for newcomers. The community is particularly popular with military families, as it borders the All American Freeway that leads to Fort Bragg less than 10 miles away. “In this market, things sell quickly because of the military clientele,” says Shawn Groover, a broker with RE/MAX Choice. “It’s very middle of the road, between the base and downtown, which makes it a convenient residence.”

Cumberland County Schools district oversees schools in this neighborhood. Terry Sanford High School, with a B rating from Niche, is the common choice for older students and the only school in the Cumberland County district with an AP Capstone program for preparing students for university. Alma O. Easom Elementary School, with its B ranking and Margaret Willis Elementary, with a C, are both known for their CCS Art Education programs, and are only a mile apart from each other across Bragg Boulevard. Last, but not least, R. Max Abbot Middle School, rated a B, is a great option for students who are looking to blend arts and sports in their education. For higher education students, the Fayetteville Technical Community College and Fayetteville State University campuses are right by the neighborhood.

At the center of the neighborhood is Honeycutt Park, home of the Kiwanis Recreation Center where kids can participate in after-school sports programs and families can enjoy its walking track, fitness room, and gym. Less than five minutes across Bragg Boulevard, Mazarick Park hosts fishing, sports arenas, and picnic spaces on its nearly 80 acres.

Up Bragg Boulevard is a stretch of boutiques, beauty parlors, and even a comic bookstore that hosts card game nights past Fayetteville Technical College. Students at the college, and locals, can walk right next door to B & B Bowling Lanes and Fit4Life Health Clubs. Drive north up the boulevard, and you can pick up your groceries at Circle K, Dollar Tree, and Food Lion. If you need a break from shopping, catch a film at Omni Cinemas 8 showing the latest blockbusters down Sycamore Dairy Road off Highway 24.

Raeford Road is where residents go to find the most food options, with many chain favorites like Wendy’s, Chick-fil-a, Chipotle and Panera Bread. Or you can stop for essentials at Harris Teeter, Walgreens and Publix Super Market at the Tallywood Shopping Center. You can also find plenty of local establishments like Paddy’s Irish Pub House, popular for its karaoke and live music. The neighborhood is also close to Cross Creek Mall down Sycamore Dairy Road, the largest mall in Fayetteville which contains over 150 stores.

An expansive suburb with plenty of educational and recreational destinations, Terry Sanford is right at the intersection of some of Fayetteville’s signature areas.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
