New Construction Homes in RiverTown
By Lance Sheridan, REALTOR® · Community sources reviewed October 8, 2026
RiverTown’s river setting and recreation facilities make it worth exploring neighborhood by neighborhood. A home in a riverfront community is not necessarily a waterfront home, so compare the actual lot, view, and access rights.
Ask Lance about RiverTown ↗HOMES & BUILDERS
Find the right starting point.
Mattamy’s RiverTown page presents townhomes, single-family homes, and active-adult home and villa options. WaterSong is identified as a gated 55+ neighborhood. Confirm the specific collection, available homes, and applicable restrictions before selecting a tour.
Use the official directory below or ask Lance for a tailored shortlist. This guide does not display a live MLS inventory feed. Advertised builder prices and incentives must be reconfirmed.

MAP, SCHOOLS & COMMUTES
Check the address, then the route.

Explore the community location ↗The map link searches a community or visitor location; it does not establish boundaries or a particular lot. Test your commute at the times you normally travel and check the route from the actual home.
School assignments
Verify the exact address and intended school year directly with the district. Community names, nearby campuses, and builder materials do not guarantee an assignment.

Flood and insurance review
Check the individual property’s flood map and obtain insurance quotes. Community-wide descriptions cannot establish a particular home’s risk.

Questions worth asking before you commit.
Separate the value of shared riverfront amenities from a home’s private waterfront features. Review the lot survey, flood information, insurance quote, and any dock or access rights relevant to the property.
- Which Rivers Edge district serves this property?
- Is any water access private, shared, or simply a view?
- Are there additional WaterSong or neighborhood-specific fees?
Should I contact Lance before visiting a builder?
Yes. Contact Lance first so you can discuss representation and confirm the builder’s registration process before your first visit or online inquiry.
Can I compare new construction with resale homes?
Yes. Ask for a shortlist using the same budget, size, location, and timing requirements. Compare condition, included features, fees, and the total cost—not just the advertised price.
Are prices and fees guaranteed by this guide?
No. This is a research guide, not a property-specific quote. Get current written figures for the home and confirm them before making a decision.
