    YOUR WATERFRONT OASIS AWAITS! This stunning custom log home comes to market for the first time since its construction. Situated on arguably the BEST spot on Derby pond, this home has all the structural and mechanical updates to give you peace of mind, plus the visual touches to enjoy the home in style. Set back from the road in the back of the quiet community of Derbywood, step inside the welcoming front porch to a breathtaking great room. Floor to soaring ceiling features rustic elegance complete with a authentic deer antler chandelier at the center and a stone wood burning fireplace provides a cozy focal point for relaxing, dining, or entertaining. An efficient chef's kitchen has brand new appliances, granite counters, stylish newly painted cabinets, and tile backsplash. There is also a large deep freezer for storing your cooking creations or your wild game. The FIRST FLOOR PRIMARY SUITE with walk in closet and rustic full bathroom with tile, an office and upper loft perfect for a 4th bedroom, a study, or recreation area. There is also a large laundry room with loads of storage and powder room. Upstairs you will find two charming bedrooms and another full bath. Never owned a log cabin? Rest easy, because the builder performed a log density test on all of the exterior Timbers. All timbers were found to be sound, plus they completed two coats of stain and polyurethane on all of the exterior, including the front porch and rear deck. Combine that with a metal roof and you have a worry free exterior for years to come. All new lighting and wiring, encapsulated crawlspace, certified septic, and brand new landscaping . Enjoy fishing, kayaking, paddle boating, or just sit on your deck and enjoy the sights on one of Kent County's most beautiful bodies of water. Derbywood is a small enclave of custom homes in Caesar Rodney School district that provides excellent access to all points north and south. Less than 10 minutes to Dover, DAFB, and 40 minutes to Delaware's beaches. All remodeling and updating work done by a stellar local builder.
