While Upper Dublin Township began as an agricultural community dominated by farmland and open space, the township is now a burgeoning residential suburb where sidewalk-lined streets sit alongside lush parks and shopping centers. “Upper Dublin is known for its park system and its school district. It's been known to draw people for that,” says Daniel Caparo, a Realtor with Exp Realty and a lifelong resident of Montgomery County. Located in eastern Montgomery County, the township includes portions of several communities: Abington, Ambler, Ardsley, Dresher, Fort Washington, Jarrettown, Maple Glen, North Hills, Oreland and Willow Grove. With access to major thoroughfares such as the Pennsylvania Turnpike and Pennsylvania Route 309, Upper Dublin offers comfortable suburban living with proximity to the urban amenities of Philadelphia.

Single-family homes, townhouses and new construction
Mature trees shade residential streets, where homebuyers will find a mix of single-family homes with manicured lawns that average just under half an acre. Traditional Colonial Revivals, Cape Cods and ranch-style homes date back to the mid-1900s, while custom-built estates embrace elements of French Country or Victorian-style design. Prices for single-family homes range from around $400,000 for a smaller ranch-style house to $1.2 million for a custom-built property. Townhouses can be found in established developments to new construction communities like Mattison Estate, where units feature open floorplans and modern appliances. Townhouses sell for anywhere from $350,000 for an older unit to $1 million for new construction. “There’s been a lot of development in Dresher,” Caparo says. “It’s unbelievable how prices have elevated with these million-dollar townhouses and single-family homes” Several tributaries of Wissahickon Creek run through Upper Dublin, and the township has historically been susceptible to flooding caused by river or stream overflows due to heavy rainfall. In January 2024, the township was rewarded $300,000 by the Watershed Restoration and Protection Program to help fund the Willow Manor Drainage project, which aims to alleviate flooding by addressing stream bank erosion issues.

Outdoor recreation includes fishing at Loch Alsh Reservoir
Upper Dublin Township has over 600 acres of open space and parkland. Mondauk Common Park sits in the center of town and features a sand volleyball court, a playground and a 1-mile paved walking track. Over at the Loch Alsh Reservoir, anglers can reel in bass or sunfish. Twining Valley Park sits on the opposite side of I-276 and has over 5 miles of paved trails for walkers, runners and bikers to explore. Next door is the Twining Valley Dog Park, where pooches can play off-leash in three fenced-in areas. The Upper Dublin Public Library offers more than just books, with study rooms, a computer lab and programs for all ages. The township also hosts weekly movie nights each summer at the UDPL’s Shanis Auditorium. Golfers have access to two private facilities: Lulu Country Club and the Manufacturers’ Golf Country Club. They sit side-by-side in the southeastern corner of Upper Dublin, and both feature 18-hole golf courses with scenic views of Sandy Run Creek. Tucked behind the country clubs is the Upper Dublin Community Pool, open from mid-June to Labor Day weekend.

Festivities at the Upper Dublin Fire & Ice Festival
Neighbors gather for various events hosted by Upper Dublin Parks & Recreation, including the Upper Dublin Fire & Ice Festival. The festivities take place each February outside the Upper Dublin Township Building and include local food trucks, live music, a beer garden and plenty of fire pits to keep everyone warm. During warmer months, neighbors gather at Temple University’s Ambler Campus for the Upper Dublin Summer Concert Series. While most of the township’s farmland has been converted into residential developments, Rose Bridge Farm continues to operate as an animal sanctuary where residents can snuggle up with baby cows, do yoga with baby goats or purchase fresh produce from Organic Heirlooms.
