Description

Set on an expansive 5.01 acres of flat, open land in the highly desirable Ambler/Maple Glen, 1637 Dillon Road presents a rare opportunity for developers, investors, or end users seeking future upside. The property’s A-Residential zoning and generous acreage offer strong potential for subdivision into approximately .6-acre lots, ideal for new construction homes in a market where comparable new construction properties command $1.8M–$2M+ price points. Alternatively, the property lends itself beautifully to an equestrian estate or private family compound. The land is a standout feature—mostly cleared, level, and gently rolling, with minimal tree coverage, allowing for efficient site planning and construction. A small creek at the front of the property, classified as wetlands, has minimal impact on the usable acreage, while the side of the property backs to township-owned wooded land, ensuring privacy and protection from future development. Public water and sewer connections are available along Dillon Road, further enhancing development feasibility. The ranch- style residence on the property offers approximately 3,271 square feet of living space, featuring three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a half bath. Upon entry, you are welcomed into a formal living room—currently used as a game room—which flows into the formal dining room and an updated kitchen with granite countertops. A hallway to the right leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full hall bath, including the primary suite with an ensuite bathroom and a generous walk-in closet. On the left side of the home, two expansive family rooms/Den provide excellent entertaining space, one highlighted by a wood-burning fireplace, and the other offering a bar and half bath. Once a horse farm, the property retains its equestrian roots with two pole barns featuring stables, offering the opportunity to restore the land’s heritage or repurpose the structures for storage or future use. Located within the award-winning Upper Dublin School District, the property combines strong market demand, a premier suburban setting, and long-term development potential. With limited large-parcel opportunities remaining in this area, 1637 Dillon Road stands out as a compelling investment for builders and developers seeking scale, location, and versatility—making it a truly exceptional offering in one of Montgomery County’s most sought-after suburban markets.
