Rarely does a home like this come to market in Orinda. From the moment you arrive, the elegant traditional covered entry, impeccably landscaped front garden, and mature Japanese maples set the tone for everything that follows. Step inside to a home reimagined from top to bottom with a sophisticated designer palette; crisp white wainscoting, warm wide-plank floors, skylights, and walls of glass that dissolve the line between indoors and out. The main level is an entertainer's dream: a cozy parlor with fireplace and built-in cabinetry, an expansive open-plan family room with skylight and sliding doors to the patio, a beautifully appointed dining room, and a gourmet kitchen with stainless appliances, island, bar seating, and butler's pantry. Two generous bedrooms on this level; one a serene en-suite complete the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with soaring vaulted ceilings, lush garden views, walk-in closet, and attached office. Two additional bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and a well-appointed hall bath complete the upper level. Outside is where 246 Overhill truly sets itself apart. The .69-acre flat lot, vanishingly rare in Orinda, has been transformed into a resort-caliber retreat: a grand stone patio with built-in fire pit, a separate dining terrace, sweeping oval lawn, raised garden beds, abundant fruit trees, mature ornamental plantings, and a basketball hoop. Solar panels add modern efficiency, and the property is pre-plumbed for a pool, cabana, or ADU. Moments to Glorietta Elementary, Meadow Swim & Tennis Club, the Lafayette Rim Trail, and both Orinda and Lafayette town centers. Welcome home!
