Barry Farm sits near D.C.’s new Bridge District project
With big plans in the imminent future, there is no better time to call Barry Farm home. Located in the rapidly growing southeast quadrant of D.C., Barry Farm is in an area with “a ton of development and opportunity coming quickly,” says Evan Marbury of Compass Realty. The heart of Barry Farm is less than a mile from the Fredrick Douglass Bridge, the site of the Bridge District, a project to transform 100 acres of land into a hub for dining, shopping and more. The project will bring national grocery chains to the area while being the epicenter for local dining options in the southeastern part of D.C.
Homes with Metro access appeal to city workers
Housing options in Barry Farm range from detached ranch-style homes to high-rise condos. Many of the detached homes feature fenced-in front yards, great for gardening, but you will have to find parking on the street as driveways are rare. These homes typically sell for around $200,000, while two-bedroom condos start at $120,000 and three-bedroom units are just under $300,000. “There is great equity potential in the area if you are looking to purchase,” says Marbury. The location and proximity to D.C. make Barry Farms ideal for residents who work in the city. “We’re right across the bridge from the city and so close to the Metro, it makes it easy to get to work.”
