Property Description

Tucked into a wooded hillside overlooking Lake Michigan, the Trillium Hill Treehouse takes its name from the sea of wild white trillium that blankets the property each spring — pure Up North magic that unfolds across every season. Custom built in 2000, this half-log-sided (2x6 framed) home rises three stories into the canopy — earning its "Treehouse" name. The main level welcomes you through a custom-made entry door with a ship's porthole onto rich maple hardwood floors, opening to a kitchen, dining room, and living room with a stunning stone wood-burning fireplace, a bedroom with a Murphy bed and built-in shelves (can double as an office), a spa-like full bath with jetted soaking tub, and an elevated balcony for sunset dinners. The entire top floor is a private primary suite with cathedral ceilings and its own treetop balcony overlooking the lake — perfect for morning coffee with Lake MI views. Below, the walkout lower level adds a second living area warmed by a cozy wood stove (ideal for hot yoga), a third bedroom, a mechanical room with storage/closet space, and a walkout patio to take in the starry night sky. You'll love the west-facing windows that frame jaw-dropping sunsets from every level. Sitting on nearly 2.70 acres of all-natural, low-maintenance landscape, the property features a historic stone barn foundation and silo with storybook appeal—enjoy as-is or transform into a barndominium retreat. A new roof, an oversized detached two-car garage, a backup generator, and a convenient two-track that drives directly to the home — plus a custom staircase (lights up at night) if you'd rather climb to the canopy — round out the thoughtful amenities. Prime location, just minutes from Northport and Leland, with Sleeping Bear Dunes, hiking and biking trails, beaches, and Leelanau wineries close at hand — make this your forever home or favorite escape!
