805 Cascades Drive

Some homes impress. Others are unforgettable before you reach the front door. Hidden from the street on 17.63 private acres along the Chagrin River, this extraordinary stone and timber estate begins with a gated entrance, a picturesque bridge and a sweeping paved drive through mature woodland. Then comes the reveal, a magnificent mountain lodge retreat unlike anything you expected to find. Massive hand hewn timbers sourced from Montana, natural stone, soaring ceilings and walls of glass define the home's authentic character. A dramatic great room, four fireplaces and expansive gathering spaces flow to terraces and decks, while the kitchen features a custom island, granite counters and multiple ovens. The approximately 5,000 square foot primary wing is a private residence unto itself, complete with its own kitchen and dinette, fitness room, laundry, office and library spaces, dual closets, two spa inspired baths, meditation room and elevator access. Every bedroom is a suite. Walkout lower level guest quarters offer private living spaces, ensuite baths and outdoor access, complemented by a curved wet bar, recreation areas and production studio. Beyond the walls, wooded trails lead toward the river. A pond, gazebo, amphitheater and fire pit transform the grounds into remarkable places to gather or retreat. With 6 bedrooms, 10 baths, 6 garage spaces, an elevator, whole home generator, new roof installed in 2026 and more than 19,000 total square feet, the scale is exceptional. The owner reports approximately $11 million invested in creating and improving this estate. You can admire the photographs. But the privacy, craftsmanship and sense of arrival must be experienced.
