Some homes are remembered for how they look. Others, for how life feels within them.

At 5005 Mankoma Terrace, it’s the little things that make a home: slow mornings, afternoons by the pool, evenings spent outside and a neighborhood that makes you feel like you belong.

Set in The Hamptons at Umstead, with the beauty of Umstead State Park nearby, this is a home with room to gather, space to unwind and a setting that makes everyday life feel a little more special.

And now, it’s ready for its next chapter.

📍 5005 Mankoma Terrace | Raleigh, NC | $1,375,000

The room everyone gravitates to. The spot you escape to for a little quiet. The backyard where everyone ends up staying longer than planned.

This home in The Hamptons at Umstead brings all of it together, with thoughtfully designed spaces, beautiful finishes and the kind of care you notice throughout.

A dramatic two-story family room framed by a wall of windows. A well-appointed kitchen designed for gathering. Warm hardwood floors, granite countertops and timeless details throughout. Accordion doors open to a sunroom, extending the living space to an inviting outdoor grilling station and fireplace.

There’s room to come together and room to spread out, with a private office, a main level guest suite, spacious primary suite with a sitting room and a bonus room ready for whatever life calls for next.

And the care this home has received makes it even more appealing. Recent updates include 2026 HVAC units, new carpet and refreshed paint, complementing a home that has been thoughtfully maintained.

Tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac, with open-sky views, a three-car garage and access to the greenway and Umstead trails, this is a home that balances everyday comfort with spaces to entertain, unwind and enjoy it all.

5 Bedrooms + Bonus Room | 3-Car Garage

The question we hear most from sellers is whether to start high and leave room to come down. The Triangle numbers answer it pretty clearly.

Homes that never needed a reduction sold in 25 days at 99.2% of their original price. Homes that did sat for 76 days and closed at 91.9%.

Starting high rarely buys negotiating room. It costs time and money. If you’d like to see where your home would land, send us a message.

Are you planning to sell this fall?

Fall in love with the Triangle. 🍂🧡

There’s something about this time of year that makes us appreciate just how special the Triangle is. From raising a family to finding your favorite local spots and making memories in every season, it’s a pretty wonderful place to call home.

From pumpkin patches and scenic spots for fall foliage to the coffee worth getting out of bed for, seasonal bites you’ll be thinking about long after, and date nights that deserve a spot on the calendar, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite ways to enjoy fall around the Triangle.

Consider this your fall bucket list. The only question is where to start. 🤎

Save this for the weekends ahead, and send it to someone who needs a little fall inspiration.
