Welcome to 2655 Gilbert Road — a meticulously maintained and extensively updated split-level gem nestled in the highly sought-after Braddock Estates community of Mount Airy. Set on a stunning 1.25-acre lot that is 100% flat, open, and fully usable, this is the outdoor space buyers dream about but rarely find. No steep slopes, no wooded unusable sections — just pristine, lush, open yard from edge to edge, perfect for entertaining, play, gardening, or simply enjoying the beauty of true Maryland countryside living. Inside, this 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath home has been thoughtfully transformed from top to bottom with an impressive list of updates that eliminate the typical homebuyer's worry list entirely. The main level welcomes you with brand new LVP flooring (2026) and fresh baseboard and shoe molding (2026) that give the home a crisp, modern feel from the moment you step in. New double barn doors in the front living room make a striking design statement, while a new coat closet adds everyday functionality. The kitchen shines with gorgeous quartz countertops (2023), a new refrigerator, stove, oven/range, and vent hood — all 2025 — making it a space that's as functional as it is beautiful. A massive kitchen/dining combo with slider leads to a two-tiered deck overlooking that spectacular yard, ideal for morning coffee or summer cookouts. A gorgeous and bright three-season room rounds out the main level perfectly. The upper level features a spacious primary suite with en-suite bath, plus two additional well-sized bedrooms with new carpet (2021). A main-level bedroom with full bath offers tremendous flexibility — ideal for in-law accommodations, a guest suite, or a home office setup. Head down to the lower level and you'll find a warm, inviting family room anchored by a cozy vented gas fireplace — the perfect spot to gather on crisp Maryland evenings. The basement features a sizable laundry room and a bonus room/gym with a workshop and ample storage. The investment in this home doesn't stop inside. In 2025 alone, the sellers added new insulated vinyl siding, new gutters, new attic thermal lining and insulation, and a new water purification system — plus 14 owned 5kW solar panels (70kW total capacity) that deliver real, meaningful savings on energy bills every single month. The roof was replaced in 2018, along with both TRANE heat pumps and TRANE air handlers, giving buyers years of worry-free HVAC performance. The septic drain fields were also replaced in 2021 for full peace of mind. This home has been loved, upgraded, and prepared for its next chapter — and it shows. Beyond the property itself, Mount Airy delivers the lifestyle to match. Straddling the Carroll and Frederick County lines, Mt. Airy is one of Maryland's most desirable communities — offering small-town warmth with serious commuter convenience.

Airy's charming shops, local restaurants, and community events foster a true sense of neighborhood pride, while nearby options like the Westview Promenade, Downtown Frederick's vibrant dining and entertainment scene, and Milestone Shopping Center keep everything you need well within reach.
