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 re-imagined 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 B welcomes you through a covered porch entryway into a bright foyer that opens to a spacious Great Room with solid oak engineered hardwood floors, tall windows, recessed lighting, custom built-ins, and a gas fireplace that adds warmth and character. The gourmet kitchen features shaker cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and a large island with farmhouse sink, opening to a private deck that’s perfect for morning coffee or entertaining guests. A half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a serene retreat with hardwood floors, an 11-foot tray ceiling, multiple walk-in closets, a cozy sitting area, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities and walk-in shower. Step out onto your private balcony and enjoy peaceful views above Ambler. The ground floor includes two additional bedrooms, a den or home office, a full bath with ceramic tile, and a laundry room all with the same attention to detail found throughout. Every inch of this home has been rebuilt to modern standards from the individually zoned HVAC system to reinforced structural framing ensuring comfort, efficiency, and longevity.

The Colony Club offers something rare the soul of a historic building paired with the ease and sophistication of new construction.
