Baywood's numbers are thin, and that matters as much as the numbers themselves. With only three closings feeding the current snapshot, the $324,900 median price and $168.08 per square foot figure should be read as a directional signal, not a settled market rate. A single unusual sale can move both figures more than they would in a deeper market.
The 179-day median days on market is the more telling data point here. That is a slow clearing pace, and it tells buyers they generally are not competing against other offers, while it tells sellers to price on the conservative side and expect a longer runway to close rather than a quick sale.
The 60-Second Overview
Baywood market snapshot (as of August 31, 2026): the median sale price is about $325K ($168 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 179 days on market for closed sales.
Baywood is a small, low-volume pocket of Darien in McIntosh County, where limited recent sales activity means pricing and timeline expectations should be set case by case rather than off a broad market trend.

Who Baywood is best for.
Best for
- Buying with a longer time horizon and no need for a quick resale.
- Negotiating on price and terms without pressure from competing offers.
- Willing to verify amenities and condition directly on a specific listing rather than assuming a set standard.
Probably not for
- Needing a fast closing timeline in a market currently running a long median days on market.
- Relying on a deep set of recent comparable sales to validate an offer price.
- Expecting confirmed community amenities without checking the individual listing first.

The Baywood buying strategy.
If we were buying in Baywood today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Baywood.
A Market Defined by Scarcity of Data
Three closings is not enough to establish a reliable price trend, and that shapes how this community should be approached. The $324,900 median and $168.08 per square foot are real transaction data, but they represent a narrow slice of activity rather than a statistically stable pattern. Buyers and sellers should treat these figures as a starting reference point for negotiation, not a fixed benchmark.
The 179-day median days on market reinforces the picture of a slow-moving, low-turnover pocket. Homes here are not moving quickly once listed, which gives buyers more room to negotiate on price and terms, and requires sellers to be realistic about time to close. No community amenities have been identified from current MLS listings, so any amenity claims for a specific listing should be verified directly rather than assumed from the area.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Baywood. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
