About Us
Committed to Preserving and Creating Lifelong Memories
For generations the name Storm Hill has been synonymous with quality living, historical preservation, and a deep appreciation for the importance of the lumbering era in picturesque northwest Lower Michigan. Today, the commitment to both preserving and creating lifelong memories continues through Storm Hill Development Group, LLC, custom builders of distinctive homes in Leelanau County.

The Wilce family, which created the Empire Lumber Company in 1887 and built a turn-of-the-century estate called Storm Hill, played a significant role in the growth of the Leelanau County village of Empire. The Empire Lumber Company became one of the largest and best equipped hardwood mills in the region, and was responsible for helping create a tradition of quality building that still exists today with Storm Hill homes.

The Bagaloff Family
Jim Bagaloff has been involved in real estate development since 1971 and has succeeded because of his commitment to quality, sensitivity to the environment, and years of experience in the building and real estate industries. Jim is a former President of a division of Kemper Financial Services, Inc. Supervision of all Storm Hill projects is conducted by his son Brad and son-in-law Nat Gray. Both Brad and Nat are licensed builders and real estate salespeople. Together, they guide customers through all aspects of the building process, to help ensure complete satisfaction and a new home that provides a quality living experience.

"At Storm Hill, we have built our reputation by constructing quality homes, and by listening to the needs of our customers. This leads to positive, lifelong relationships. And that's important because we're not just building homes for customers but for people who will become both friends and members of a community. The rewards of elegant living are only possible when the homeowner's dreams are realized, and that starts with excellent service provided by Storm Hill."
-- Jim Bagaloff, Storm Hill
