4564 Oak Bluff

Perched high above the treetops, this newly built post-and-beam residence captures one of the rarest vantage points on Walloon Lake--a sweeping, uninterrupted panorama that stretches for miles. Designed by acclaimed architect Aris Georges in collaboration with Detroit design studio North & Birch, the home embodies northern Michigan living at its finest: refined, rooted in nature, and intentionally understated. What makes this property truly exceptional is its balance of privacy and proximity--complete seclusion surrounded by protected conservation land, yet just a short walk to downtown Walloon. Enjoy dinner at lakeside restaurants, morning coffee at the cafe, or a boat slip just down the hill. It's the best of both worlds: nature at your doorstep, and the lakefront lifestyle within easy reach. Every detail was crafted to complement the landscape--vaulted ceilings framed in warm wood beams, walls of glass that bring the outdoors in, and natural materials that shift beautifully with the light. The result is a space that feels peaceful, alive, and deeply connected to its surroundings. The kitchen is a study in modern craftsmanship, anchored by a sculpted stone island and handcrafted cabinetry. Brass fixtures, integrated appliances, and open shelving balance elegance with ease--equally suited for quiet mornings or lively summer evenings. In the great room, a soaring wood-burning fireplace creates a stunning focal point, while custom built-ins and expansive windows frame the lake. The primary suite offers a private retreat with tranquil lake views, a custom walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath wrapped in natural stone. Secondary suites echo the home's thoughtful design, with custom tilework and neutral tones. The walkout lower level extends the living space with high ceilings, a spacious family room, wet bar, and additional guest suites--ideal for gatherings and relaxation. A home where architecture, light, and landscape come together--effortlessly & unmistakably Walloon.
