As of November 2026, Sandalwood Manor 1ST Addn in Destin, FL has 1 home for sale. As of November 2026, the MLS records 34 closed sales in Sandalwood Manor 1ST Addn in Destin, FL since 1995, the most recent in August 2025. Across Destin as a whole, 130 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $850,000, 109 median days on market, with 580 homes for sale today. At that median and Okaloosa County's FY2025-26 rate of 12.89 mills, annual property tax runs about $10,960 ($10,450 with the full homestead exemption).

Sandalwood Manor 1st Addn is a small pocket in Destin, and the data reflects that scale: one active listing and a single recent closing. With numbers this thin, there is no reliable median to anchor to, so price here is set property by property. Condition, lot, and how the seller reads demand will drive the outcome more than any neighborhood trendline.
For a buyer, that means the current listing is effectively the market — worth studying closely rather than comparing against a stack of similar homes. For a seller, the posture is one of patience and pricing to the specific property, since there is no deep bench of recent sales to lean on. Both sides should treat this as a negotiation between two parties, not a bidding contest.
Figures in this note are as of July 26, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Who Sandalwood Manor is best for.
Best for
- Buyers set on a Destin location who are comfortable transacting on a single available home
- Those willing to underwrite a property on its condition and lot rather than on neighborhood trends
- Patient sellers ready to price to the specific home and wait for the right buyer
Probably not for
- Buyers who want amenity-rich communities with pools, gyms, or shared features
- Shoppers who need several comparable listings to weigh side by side before deciding
- Anyone counting on a busy market with fast, predictable resale activity

The Sandalwood Manor buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sandalwood Manor 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 Sandalwood Manor.
A thin market in Destin
With one active listing and one closing in the recent window, Sandalwood Manor 1st Addn does not generate the kind of data that supports confident pricing generalizations. There are no community amenities identified from current MLS listings, so the value proposition rests on the homes themselves and on the wider Destin location rather than on shared features.
In markets this small, the story is almost always condition-driven. Two homes on the same street can command very different prices depending on updates, layout, and lot. Buyers should underwrite the specific property in front of them; sellers should expect appraisers and buyers alike to scrutinize the individual home rather than defer to neighborhood momentum.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sandalwood Manor. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
