Community Overview

Riverstone is a premier guard-gated estate community in West Davie, built by GL Homes between 2003 and 2006. The neighborhood consists of 308 Mediterranean-style luxury homes set on builder’s acre lots, many with lake and water views that define the community’s character.

With homes priced between approximately $1.695 million and $2.05 million, Riverstone sits firmly in Davie’s luxury tier. The community’s location near the Southwest Ranches border provides the semi-rural, estate-like atmosphere that high-end buyers seek while maintaining proximity to major transportation corridors.

GL Homes is one of South Florida’s most recognized luxury builders, and Riverstone reflects their signature approach: generous lot sizes, thoughtful community planning, and Mediterranean architectural consistency throughout the neighborhood.

Amenities

Riverstone features 24-hour guard-gated access, providing residents with a high level of security and privacy. The community’s waterfront setting with lake views across multiple homesites creates a resort-like environment within a residential context.

The builder’s acre lots offer substantial space for private pools, outdoor kitchens, expansive landscaping, and the kind of outdoor living that South Florida’s climate encourages. HOA fees are under $350 per month, covering community maintenance, gate staffing, and common area upkeep — a competitive rate for a guard-gated luxury community of this caliber.

Schools

Riverstone falls within the Broward County Public Schools system and is in the Western High School zone. For elementary and middle school assignments specific to addresses within the community, use the BCPS School Finder tool.

The West Davie location also provides access to private school options throughout the area. For a full analysis of school performance and options, see our 2026 Davie Schools Parent Guide.

Flood Zone & Insurance

Given Riverstone’s waterfront character with lakes throughout the community, flood zone designations should be carefully reviewed on a per-parcel basis. Verify your specific lot’s flood zone using the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.

Homes built between 2003 and 2006 benefit from post-2002 Florida Building Code improvements, which can positively impact wind insurance premiums. Property tax details and assessed values are available through the Broward County Property Appraiser (BCPA).

Location & Commute

Riverstone is located in West Davie near the Southwest Ranches border, an area known for its estate-style living and equestrian character. The community has convenient access to I-595, the Sawgrass Expressway, and Florida’s Turnpike.

Downtown Fort Lauderdale is approximately 25 to 30 minutes east, and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) is roughly a 20 to 25 minute drive. The western positioning provides a quieter residential setting while keeping major employment centers, shopping, and entertainment within easy reach.

Market Context

Riverstone is among Davie’s most desirable luxury addresses. The combination of GL Homes construction, 24-hour guard gate, builder’s acre lots, and waterfront settings creates a profile that commands strong pricing in any market cycle. Inventory tends to be limited, as homeowners in this community frequently hold properties for extended periods.

The under-$350/month HOA is notably competitive for a guard-gated luxury community, adding to the community’s long-term value proposition. For current market trends and comparable sales data, visit our Davie Market Data page.
