6617 BARNABY St NW

Tucked away on a quiet street in Barnaby Woods just steps from Pinehurst Parkway and the trails of Rock Creek Park, this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers the perfect balance of indoor comfort and outdoor connection.

Wake up with the seasons—sip your morning coffee or enjoy a slow breakfast on the elevated deck off the main level, surrounded by birdsong and tree-lined views from spring through fall. The expansive and deep 7,200 SF backyard is a rare find, with extensive hardscaping that’s perfect for everything from casual evenings around the grill to larger outdoor gatherings.

Inside, thoughtful updates complement classic details. A gas-powered wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, while French doors open wide for seamless indoor/outdoor flow. The renovated kitchen is a showstopper, featuring white cabinetry, quartz countertops, artisan blue arabesque tile, stainless steel appliances including double wall ovens, and a wine fridge. The open-plan kitchen and dining area keep things casual, while still offering room to host on a larger scale.

Up just half a level, a sun-drenched family room with built-ins and its own deck overlooks the backyard, creating a cozy yet flexible space for reading, relaxing, or work-from-home days. Upstairs, the bathrooms have been luxuriously renovated with natural stone finishes, including marble and travertine.

The lower level is full of possibilities—an oversized rec room has served as a children’s playroom, home theater, fitness studio, and even a band practice space. Need more flexibility? The charming fourth level makes a great 4th bedroom, office, or creative hideaway. A one-car garage adds storage or secure parking to the mix.

Location-wise, it’s tough to beat: Visit Broad Branch Market for delicious prepared foods, stroll to Brookville Market, or hit the New Morning Farm farmers market in nearby Martin’s Additions. The Lafayette Park tennis courts and the shops and restaurants of the Connecticut Avenue corridor are also nearby, as are various commuter routes. Welcome home!
