Within BarChart is there a way to increase the length of the horizontal axis in order for me to be able to fit in a description on the right side? Below is an example where I used another bar with the value(s) 0 so that my description has some space on the side. However, I am sure there is a real solution to that.

BarChart[{{3, 2}, {0, 0}}, 
  ChartLayout -> "Stacked", 
  Epilog -> 
    {Red,
     braceLabel[{{1.6, 4}, {1.6, 2}}, Style["label", Larger], .02], 
     Dashed, Line[{{0.5, 4}, {1.55, 4}}], Dashed, Line[{{0.5, 2}, {1.55, 2}}]}]

I recommend using PlotRangePadding to enlarge the plot viewport to include the graphics specified in the epilog.

BarChart[{3, 2},
  ChartLayout -> "Stacked",
  PlotRangePadding -> {{Automatic, .55}, .2},
  Epilog -> {Red, EdgeForm[{Thick, Black}], Rectangle[{1.55, 2}, {2.05, 4}]}]

Use PlotRange. You did not include your definition of braceLabel

BarChart[{3, 2},
 ChartLayout -> "Stacked",
 Epilog -> {Red, Dashed,
   Line[{{0.5, 4}, {1.55, 4}}],
   Line[{{0.5, 2}, {1.55, 2}}]}, 
 PlotRange -> {{0.5, 2.5}, Automatic},
 Frame -> {{True, False}, {True, False}}]
