Sherwood Forest is a community in Santa Rosa Beach, Walton County, FL. Across Santa Rosa Beach as a whole, 520 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $950,000, 83 median days on market, with 313 homes for sale today. At that median and Walton County's FY2025-26 rate of 9.758 mills, annual property tax runs about $9,270 ($8,880 with the full homestead exemption).
Sherwood Forest sits in Santa Rosa Beach, in Walton County, along a stretch of the Emerald Coast where price is driven far more by the individual home than by any shared community package. There are no community amenities identified from current MLS listings here, so buyers are underwriting lot, condition, and proximity rather than paying into a bundle of shared features.
That means value tracks to the specific property in front of you. Expect a wide spread from house to house depending on condition and updates, and plan to judge each listing on its own merits. For sellers, that same reality cuts both ways: a well-prepared home stands out precisely because there is no amenity story doing the selling for you.

The 60-Second Overview
Sherwood Forest is a residential pocket of Santa Rosa Beach where the appeal is location and the home itself rather than shared community features, none of which surface in current MLS listings.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Momentum Research figures are our own analysis. This page describes homes, pricing and community attributes, not residents.
Who Sherwood Forest is best for.
Best for
- Buyers prioritizing a Santa Rosa Beach location over shared community features
- Buyers comfortable underwriting a home on its own condition and lot
- Buyers who value having no amenity-driven HOA overhead in the price
Probably not for
- Buyers who want resort-style amenities like a community pool or clubhouse
- Buyers seeking a gated or heavily managed community
- Buyers who need a predictable, uniform price point across every home
The Sherwood Forest buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sherwood Forest 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 Sherwood Forest.
A house-by-house market
With no community amenities identified from current listings, there is no HOA-driven pool, clubhouse, or gated entry shaping value here. Buyers should focus their diligence on the fundamentals: lot, layout, condition, and how the property sits relative to the Santa Rosa Beach corridor and its coastal access points.
Because value here is condition-driven, comparable homes can carry meaningfully different prices based on updates and upkeep. Walk the block, read each listing on its own terms, and lean on local pricing judgment rather than assuming one sale sets the tone for the next.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sherwood Forest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

In a market without an amenity story to lean on, pricing and positioning come down to reading each home against the block. We know the Santa Rosa Beach corridor, we price to condition rather than guesswork, and we will tell you plainly when a particular listing does not match what you actually want.
