Whitmore Custom Homes – Northern Michigan Office

801 Front St, Suite C/D, Unit 2

Bay Harbor, MI 49770

This expansion marks an exciting milestone for our team as we continue to grow our presence throughout Northern Michigan and better serve homeowners seeking custom homes, luxury renovations, and fixed-price construction services throughout the region.

For more than a decade, Whitmore Custom Homes has been helping families bring their vision to life through a transparent, client-focused approach to custom home building. With our new Bay Harbor office, we're excited to deepen our roots in the communities we already serve and continue building exceptional homes throughout Northern Michigan.

A Growing Presence Across Northern Michigan

While our Bay Harbor office is new, our commitment to Northern Michigan is not.

Whitmore Custom Homes is currently managing multiple projects throughout the region, including two custom homes on Elk Lake, a new lakefront residence on Lake Charlevoix, and a significant renovation on Round Lake. Additional projects are already planned for this year and next as demand continues to grow for thoughtfully designed homes and high-quality renovations throughout Northern Michigan.

From Bay Harbor and Petoskey to Harbor Springs, Charlevoix, Walloon Lake, Traverse City, and beyond, we are proud to partner with homeowners who value craftsmanship, attention to detail, and a seamless building experience.

Luxury Experience. Fixed Price.

At Whitmore Custom Homes, we believe building a custom home should be exciting- not stressful.

Founded by three brothers with engineering backgrounds and a shared commitment to transparency, our company was built on the belief that homeowners deserve greater clarity throughout the building process. Today, that philosophy continues to guide every project we undertake.

Through our proven fixed-price process, we help homeowners make informed decisions from the earliest stages of planning through final construction. Our goal is simple: eliminate surprises, create confidence, and deliver an exceptional experience from start to finish.

After more than 100 completed projects over the last decade, we've refined a process that allows clients to focus on the excitement of creating their dream home while we manage the complexities behind the scenes.

A Thoughtful Process Designed Around Certainty

Every Whitmore project begins with understanding your goals and building trust.

Before design begins, our team conducts site feasibility studies, zoning reviews, and project planning to ensure a strong foundation for success. During design, we continuously evaluate costs alongside architectural and design decisions, helping homeowners balance vision, functionality, and budget.

Unlike many traditional building models, we don't wait until construction to define project costs. Through detailed bidding and comprehensive project specifications, we establish a clear scope and provide a fixed-price construction contract prior to breaking ground.

This level of planning allows us to offer what many homeowners value most: certainty.

From pre-design through construction, our team remains actively involved to ensure every detail is executed with care, precision, and transparency.

Building Homes That Belong in Northern Michigan

Northern Michigan offers a lifestyle unlike anywhere else.

Whether it's a waterfront retreat on Lake Charlevoix, a custom home overlooking Elk Lake, or the thoughtful renovation of a beloved family cottage, every project begins with a deep appreciation for the setting and the families who will enjoy it for generations to come.

Our team specializes in creating homes that feel connected to their surroundings while delivering the comfort, functionality, and timeless design today's homeowners expect.

As we continue expanding throughout Northern Michigan, we remain committed to building homes that honor both the landscape and the lifestyle that make this region so special.
