We moved to Riverstone over two years ago and we love it here. We were looking for a green leafy suburb with a country feel but which was also convenient to get to the city as both me and my wife work there. we were also looking for houses that were reasonably priced and offered decent lot sizes. After looking at a bunch of suburbs in the vicinity, Schofields/Stanhope Gardens/Rouse Hill/Kellyville Ridge we settled on Riverstone as it offered all of this and so much more.

Its a fantastic, safe and homely suburb with access to choice of schools/ shopping and its own railway station. It's great for people who want access to facilities but don't want the congestion. Rouse Hill mall is just a short drive away so good shopping and restaurants are very accessible. Also since Riverstone is right next to Marsden Park its very convenient to get to big-box shopping like Ikea/Costco/Bunnings etc. People a very nice and our neighbours are great. Its a gem of a suburb which flies under the radar. We are very gald that we brough here. It is by no means perfect but its surely getting there.

What's good-
Choice of day care facilities
Choice of schools public/private/semi-private
Access to good shopping and restaurants is just a short drive away.
Access to big box shopping (Ikea/Costco/Bunnings)
Access to train line (commercial/ upcomming metro line)
Wonderful neighbours

What needs work-
Public transport needs to be improved. Need more bus services to get to the train station.
The shopping village near the station needs more shops.
