Listing Detail

Description:

Here’s your chance to own the award-winning Chameleon House—a true modern-industrial masterpiece designed by San Francisco’s Anderson Anderson Architects and featured in multiple luxury architecture books. Set high on a one-acre hillside overlooking cherry orchards, this one-of-a-kind home captures sweeping westward views of Lake Michigan, the Manitou Islands, Fox Islands, and The Crib Lighthouse. Its unique reflective polyethylene siding transforms with the seasons—blending into snow-covered landscapes, spring blossoms, and autumn colors, earning it the name Chameleon. Constructed with steel I-beams and structural insulated panels, the home is both innovative and energy-efficient. Inside, birch wood panels add warmth to the clean, modern design. The layout includes a primary suite, two guest bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, and a loft-style executive office with its own bath. At the very top, the rooftop deck offers unbeatable sunset views over the lake—perfect for unwinding in total privacy. Located just minutes from Leland’s Fishtown and Northport’s Bayfront Park, this is not just a home—it’s a statement, a conversation piece, and a rare opportunity to own one of Northern Michigan’s most distinctive properties.
