Property Description

Perched high above the treetops, this custom post-and-beam home?completed in fall 2025?captures one of the rarest perspectives on Walloon Lake: a sweeping, uninterrupted panorama paired with quiet, elevated privacy. The setting feels both calming and dramatic, and it's something you can't fully appreciate until you're standing there in person. Designed by Aris Georges with the Detroit-based, award-winning interior design studio NORTH + BIRCH, the home blends refined northern-Michigan design with a meticulous two-year build on a rare, technically demanding site. What sets the property apart is its balance of privacy and proximity. Conservation land surrounds the setting with very few visible neighbors, yet the home is just a short walk or golf-cart ride to downtown Walloon?a charming, beautifully developed village with fabulous restaurants, inviting cafes, boutique shops, and a well-stocked grocery market. Boat slips can be rented in the village, making it easy to keep a golf cart at the house and head down for a morning cruise or sunset on the water. Exposed Douglas fir beams, vaulted post-and-beam construction, and floor-to-ceiling glass frame the lake and forest from nearly every angle. A large main-level deck extends the living space outdoors, capturing the view in every season. Inside, the craftsmanship is immediate?custom beamwork, bespoke cabinetry, and thoughtfully designed built-ins add warmth and intention throughout. The great room's fully custom wood-burning fireplace stands as a true work of art. The primary suite offers a spectacular view, heated floors, and a beautifully tiled shower. The home was also designed to comfortably host guests, with well-appointed suites throughout. The walkout lower level provides generous room to gather, with high ceilings, a large family room, and direct access to the outdoors. A home where architecture, light, and landscape come together?a modern take on Walloon that still stays true to living up north.
