Living in Rivertown

Neighborhood Overview

Rivertown offers the ultimate riverfront master-planned experience, where luxury living meets the serene beauty of the St. Johns River. This expansive, 5,000-acre community is the jewel of northwest St. Johns County, known for its "golf-cart culture," resort-style amenities, and an outdoorsy, family-centric vibe. Unlike traditional suburban developments, Rivertown is designed to keep residents connected to nature, featuring over 4 miles of riverfront and thousands of acres of preserved wetlands.

Rivertown is a collection of distinct neighborhoods that cater to every stage of life, from first-time homebuyers to active adults in the 55+ WaterSong section. The community is defined by its massive investment in lifestyle, where high-end custom estates in The Riverside sit alongside modern single-family homes and low-maintenance townhomes. It is a place where your morning commute might be a sunrise paddle on the river and your evening ends with a sunset concert at the amphitheater.
