Maryland Route 650, also known as New Hampshire Avenue for most of its length, begins at the DC Line and straddles the Montgomery-Prince George's county line (with the city of Takoma Park in Montgomery County on the west), entering Montgomery County (Takoma Park) for a mile, before completely going into Prince George's County as it enters Langley Park before completely entering Montgomery County again for good as it enters into White Oak.
Afterwards, it continues through Colesville and Ashton, where it crosses Maryland Route 108. After leaving Ashton, MD 650 continues for another 11.5 miles until it intersects MD 108 for the second and final time in Laytonsville, whereupon MD 650 ends. Beyond the intersection with Maryland Route 97 Route 650 is known as Damascus Road.
From MD 650's intersection with U.S. Route 29 to its first intersection with Maryland Route 108 in Ashton, the route traverses the original 1934 alignment of U.S. Route 29.
