Description:

Welcome to 7701 Maryknoll Avenue, where beautifully updated interiors, generous living spaces, and inviting outdoor areas come together in the heart of Bethesda's sought-after Mary Knolls neighborhood. Designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining, this five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home offers the space, flexibility, and warmth that make a house feel like home. At its heart is a beautifully renovated kitchen featuring Brazilian soapstone countertops, custom cabinetry, colorful Mexican Talavera tile, and a handcrafted walnut island. The kitchen flows seamlessly into an expansive, light-filled family room with skylights, creating a wonderfully open gathering space. Whether preparing dinner while catching up on the day's events, hosting friends, or enjoying a quiet weekend morning, the connection between these rooms makes everyday living feel easy and natural. With five bedrooms and multiple living areas, there's flexibility for changing needs, whether working from home, welcoming overnight guests, or finding a quiet retreat. A finished attic with skylights and a half bath offers additional versatile space, while the generous sub-basement provides exceptional storage for everything from seasonal decorations to sports equipment and household essentials. Outdoor living is equally inviting. The three-season enclosed porch, complete with heaters, extends your enjoyment of the outdoors well beyond summer. Step outside to a beautifully landscaped patio with a fire pit, ideal for outdoor dinners, relaxed evenings, and gathering with friends. The expansive side yard offers something increasingly hard to find: generous, usable space for gardening, games, pets, and outdoor activities. Thoughtful improvements throughout the home include a new roof, updated exterior siding and shutters, upgraded insulation, renovated bathrooms, newer windows, and a new garage door. Solar panels provide substantial energy savings, with the current owners reporting an electricity bill of approximately $21 per month. Beyond the property, enjoy the charm of Mary Knolls, with its neighborhood sidewalks, nearby parks and playgrounds, and convenient access to downtown Bethesda. The home is within walking distance of Burning Tree Elementary, Pyle Middle School, and Walt Whitman High School, offering exceptional convenience for everyday routines. Another distinctive opportunity awaits the next owners: the possibility of joining Palisades Swim & Tennis Club without the customary multiyear waitlist, subject to club membership requirements and a separate membership purchase. From the spacious, open kitchen and family room to the private outdoor gathering spaces and welcoming neighborhood setting, 7701 Maryknoll Avenue offers a wonderful place to settle in, spread out, and enjoy life in Bethesda.
