About the Baywood Community
Baywood is a highly amenitized community of almost 350 homes located in Delaware's lower Sussex County near the intersection of Routes 23 and 24. Baywood is within minutes of Delaware's first city Lewes, the Tanger shopping outlets on Route 1 (having over 130 vendors), and Rehoboth Beach. Other coastal resort areas such as Dewey Beach, Bethany Beach, Fenwick Island, and Ocean City, MD, are only a short drive away.
Baywood offers neighborhood communities that share a mix of one- and two-story detached residences and townhome units ranging from 1600 square feet to over 3500 square feet. As of July, 2010, five phases of construction have been completed; a sixth is already 50% complete with five homes occupied; a seventh phase of townhomes and townhome/cottages has been launched, with one unit completed and now receiving its first occupants; and infrastructure for an eighth phase is already in place.
The Baywood community is anchored by the 18-hole, award-winning and "exclusively public" golf course Baywood Greens. A third loop of nine holes is under construction (five of nine holes completed), with opening now planned for May, 2013.
Future growth plans at Baywood include construction of an equestrian center, a community shopping area and conference center, an aquatic center, tennis courts, and more than 1000 additional homes in a variety of configurations.
We invite you to learn more about our community and the possibilities of home ownership in Baywood by visiting the website of Signature Homes.

About the Baywood Homeowners' Association
The Baywood Homeowners' Association (BHA) is a non-profit organization whose members share only the common bonds that they own homes in the Baywood community and desire to maintain and improve the community in which they've chosen to live.
As our Bylaws state, our purposes are to "promote both civic and social activities, to encourage the membership to maintain and improve the quality of life in the Baywood Community, and to provide representation, input and information on any environmental concerns, legislative matters, and any other matters that may be of interest to the membership." The complete BHA Bylaws are available for inspection (184K PDF).
The BHA is not a developer of the Baywood property, nor does it manage or direct the operation of the Baywood property and facilities. The BHA is not associated with Signature Homes, the sales agent for new homes available in Baywood.
