Baywood Hills is a community in Alachua, Alachua County, FL. Across Alachua as a whole, 342 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $328,495, 80 median days on market, with 150 homes for sale today. At that median and Alachua County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.56 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,440 ($4,790 with the full homestead exemption).

Price in Baywood Hills is driven by condition and vintage far more than by any single product type. With homes built anywhere from 1900 to 2023 and a median year built around 2008, this is a mixed-age pocket where a renovated newer build and a century-old structure can sit a short distance apart. That spread means the median price tells you less than usual - what a specific home has been updated to carry matters more than the neighborhood average.
Right now there are no active listings against just one closing in the trailing window, so there is almost nothing to transact on. For sellers, that thinness can work in your favor when a well-prepared home hits a market with no competing inventory. For buyers, patience is the posture: you may wait for the right home to surface rather than choose among several at once.
Figures in this note are as of October 26, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Who Baywood Hills is best for.
Best for
- Buying to hold in Alachua and comfortable letting the right home come to you rather than shopping a full shelf of inventory
- Buyers who will scrutinize a property on its own merits - vintage, systems, and updates - rather than relying on neighborhood averages
- Trading into a roughly 1,697-square-foot footprint and wanting a lower-turnover pocket
Probably not for
- Needing to compare multiple active listings and close on a fixed timeline
- Wanting shared community amenities, since none surface in current listings
- Expecting uniform, same-era housing stock where one comp cleanly prices the next

The Baywood Hills buying strategy.
If we were buying in Baywood Hills 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 Hills.
A mixed-vintage pocket with thin turnover
The defining feature here is the century-plus construction span, from 1900 to 2023. That range rules out a tidy generalization about what a home in Baywood Hills looks like. Expect to evaluate each property on its own terms - age of systems, scope of any updates, and how the floor plan reads against the roughly 1,697-square-foot median footprint. No two homes of such different eras should be priced off the same assumptions.
With owner-occupancy at about 65 percent, a meaningful share of these homes are held rather than flipped, which helps explain why inventory stays lean. No community amenities surface in current MLS listings, so the value proposition here is the homes and the Alachua location itself, not shared facilities. If amenities are central to your search, factor that in early.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Baywood Hills. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
