...Welcome to 713 Gist Avenue, a charming cottage tucked on a quiet residential street in a wonderfully convenient location between Downtown Takoma AND Downtown Silver Spring. With easy access to shops, restaurants, parks, and Metro, this home offers the perfect blend of neighborhood charm and close-in convenience.

The sunlit living room opens to a separate dining area, creating a natural gathering space for dinners with friends or relaxed evenings at home.

The updated kitchen, remodeled in 2023 with stainless steel appliances, modern cabinetry, and thoughtful finishes, provides both style and functionality for home cooks and opens to the back yard.

The home offers four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with two bedrooms and a full bath on the main level and a loft-like bedroom upstairs.The upper level also provides flexible bonus space—perfect for a home office, art studio, a yoga practice, or a reading nook.

The finished lower level adds impressive additional living space, featuring high ceilings and recessed lighting, with a large recreation room, a full bathroom, and a fourth potential bedroom as well as a laundry room, a workshop/storage room, and a door accessing exterior steps to the rear yard. The lower level has been thoughtfully improved over the years, including the conversion of what was formerly a half bath into a full bath, the removal of wood paneling, full waterproofing, and the addition of a sump pump for peace of mind.

Outside, the fenced backyard and deck create wonderful spaces for entertaining, whether you're hosting summer barbecues, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors. Mature landscaping includes flowering plants, grape vines, raspberries, and established trees that add beauty throughout the seasons.
