Perched high above the treetops, this new custom home captures one of the rarest perspectives on Walloon Lake: a sweeping, elevated panorama paired with exceptional privacy. It is a view and setting that cannot be fully appreciated until you are standing there in person. Completed in fall 2025, this Walloon Lake residence was awarded 1st Place in the 2026 Detroit Design Awards: Homes for Vacation Home in Michigan, with interiors by NORTH+BIRCH. The award-winning design pairs refined Northern Michigan style with exceptional craftsmanship, natural materials, and a deep connection to the surrounding lake and forest. Exposed Douglas fir beams, vaulted post-and-beam construction, floor-to-ceiling glass, bespoke cabinetry, custom built-ins, and a fully custom wood-burning fireplace create a warm interior designed around the view. The main living spaces open to a large deck overlooking Walloon Lake, while the expansive windows and deck offer an unobstructed view of the Village's 4th of July fireworks. The primary suite enjoys spectacular lake views, heated floors, and a beautifully tiled shower. The walkout lower level offers high ceilings, a spacious family room, guest accommodations, and direct outdoor access. Surrounded by conservation land with very few visible neighbors, the home feels immersed in nature, yet downtown Walloon Village is only a short walk or approximately 3 minute golf-cart ride away. Restaurants, cafes, shops, grocery, and seasonal boat-slip rental opportunities make it easy to enjoy the Walloon lifestyle without the ongoing demands of direct shoreline ownership. Adjacent 1.2-acre Lot 8 is also available and offers dramatic lake views of its own. Together, Lots 7 & 8 create approximately 2.4 private acres and the rare opportunity to control 2 of the community's only 3 true lake-view parcels. Award-winning design, brand-new construction, extraordinary views, privacy, and effortless village access come together in one rare Walloon Lake retreat!
