Just one block off Ambler’s iconic Butler Avenue, The Colony Club features two luxury new-construction homes. Originally built in 1912, this Ambler landmark has been completely transformed, preserving its timeless character while delivering the quality and sophistication of brand-new construction. Once home to a vibrant social club and later a library and community gathering place, the building has been thoughtfully reimagined to honor its architectural roots while offering every modern amenity.

The builder’s craftsmanship is evident from the start, beginning with the lifting of the original structure to install new foundations and a lower-level living space. All components were newly installed in 2024 and 2025. 

Unit A welcomes you with timeless curb appeal. The classic front staircase leads to a covered porch, the perfect perch to enjoy the charm of Ambler’s tree-lined streets. Step inside to a gracious foyer that opens to the Great Room, where gleaming solid oak engineered hardwood floors set the tone for the quality and detail throughout. The main level offers a bright, open layout with large windows, a gas fireplace, built-in bar, recessed lighting, and a designer kitchen with shaker cabinetry, granite counters, stainless-steel appliances, and a farmhouse-style island. A stylish half bath with a pocket door completes this level.

Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true retreat, featuring hardwood floors, an 11-foot tray ceiling, multiple walk-in closets, a spacious sitting area, and a spa-inspired en suite bath with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. Step onto the private west-facing balcony—the perfect place to unwind and take in sunset views over Ambler’s skyline.

The lower level provides two additional bedrooms, a den, a full bath, and a laundry room with walk-out access to two private off-street parking spaces. Green features include insulated concrete form (ICF) foundations, VRF HVAC systems with room-by-room climate control, LED lighting, closed-cell spray foam insulation, and the upcycling of original materials.  Steel-beam reinforcement, and all-new systems make this home a rare blend of historic beauty and modern comfort, just steps from downtown Ambler, SEPTA, and award-winning Wissahickon schools.

The Colony Club offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Ambler’s history, fully renewed for today’s lifestyle—a truly one-of-a-kind home where character, craftsmanship, and comfort come together beautifully.
