Northville Lumber Building Supply Outlet & Novi Home Design Center
Two Locations
Northville Lumber houses our retail store and lumber yard – stocking a huge inventory of building materials. This original facility is located just a few blocks north of historic Downtown Northville on Base Line Road across from Parmenter’s Northville Cider Mill.
Our Novi Home Design Center on the Southeast corner of 9 Mile and Novi Road opened in 2016 to complement our Northville building supply outlet. The Home Design Center provides an expanded presence to showcase our broad home improvement product line. Customers can now easily learn about new and exciting innovations in home design and explore a wide range of color, style and material selections.
Helping People Improve their Homes for Almost Two Hundred Years
Our Rich History
Originally established as a flour mill by John Miller in 1827 in what was then known as the “northernmost village of Plymouth Township,” (later to become Northville), history buffs may be interested to learn that records on file with Oakland County validate Northville Lumber’s claim to fame as the oldest business in Michigan.
In addition to our acclaimed longevity, Northville Lumber has been owned by the same family since the 1860s – now operated by and employing the sixth generation of the Yerkes family.
