When you first walk around the Richvale neighbourhood, you\u2019ll notice how family-oriented the community is. Some local landmarks include the Richvale Community Centre, the Richvale Athletic Fields, the public library, the large Hillcrest Shopping Centre, and the East Don River. All of these landmarks serve as a visual reflection of what Richvale holds dear: excellent schools, beautiful parks, and modern amenities. Richvale<\/a> is close to transit, major retailers, green corridors, and more making it a great neighbourhood for families.<\/p> <\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_id=”costOfLiving” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”84%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”40px|80px|28px|80px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|32px||32px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|32px||32px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][wadl_dwelling_type_costs neighbourhood_id=”gta_rch_1014″ metropolitan_id=”ca_on_gta” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/wadl_dwelling_type_costs][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”84%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”28px|80px|32px|80px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|32px||32px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|32px||32px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][wadl_dwelling_type_trends neighbourhood_id=”gta_rch_1014″ metropolitan_id=”ca_on_gta” secondary_cta_text=”Mortgage Calculator” secondary_cta_url=”\/ca\/en\/real-estate\/calculators” secondary_cta_alt_text=”Mortgage Calculator” secondary_cta_color=”light” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/wadl_dwelling_type_trends][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_id=”boundaryMap” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”84%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”48px|80px|40px|80px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|32px||32px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|32px||32px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Located at 525 Carrville Road you\u2019ll find a small, single-storey home built around 1819. This house, constructed by Rowland Burr, a mill operator in the area, is now owned by the Richmond Hill<\/a> Historical Society and known as the Burr House Craft Gallery and Tea Room. This historical home also houses the Burr House Spinners and Weavers Guild, which works to preserve fibre arts that were so important to the pioneers who had first settled in the area. South Richvale was one of the first commuter suburbs developed in the Greater Toronto<\/a> Area because of its close proximity to Highway 7 to the southwest. The foundation of South Richvale happened in tandem with the opening of the Richvale Public School in 1923 and the Richvale Post Office in 1932. North Richvale, on the other hand, was mostly developed in the 1960s and 1970s.<\/p> <\/div>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” admin_label=”Divider” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” height=”40px” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_image src=”\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/atlas\/article-images\/neighbourhood-spotlight\/richmond-hill\/richvale-homes.jpg\/_jcr_content\/renditions\/cq5dam.web.1280.1280.jpeg” alt=”richvale real estate” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” module_class=”wahi_neighbourhood_image” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” max_height=”420px” border_radii=”on|32px|32px|32px|32px” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”84%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”16px|80px|0px|80px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|32px||32px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|32px||32px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

The north and south sides of Richvale offer different kinds of real estate<\/a>. In South Richvale, the houses originally built in the area were mostly large bungalows that have since been renovated into sizable custom homes. These mostly stone and brick homes are on large premium lots and often have multi-car garages. To the north, however, there\u2019s more variety to choose from when it comes to available homes. In North Richvale, there are detached, link-style homes, townhouses, and many smaller homes that are less expensive.<\/p> <\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_id=”infographics” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”84%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”0px|80px|64px|80px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|32px||32px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|32px||32px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][wadl_neighbourhood_infographics neighbourhood_id=”gta_rch_1014″ metropolitan_id=”ca_on_gta” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/wadl_neighbourhood_infographics][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”84%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”16px|80px|64px|80px|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|32px||32px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|32px||32px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Richvale is an incredibly family-oriented community and this focus is reflected in the amenities available to residents. One of these amenities is the Richmond<\/a> Hill Golf Club, a challenging 18-hole course, with a testing course, driving range, a clubhouse and bar, and rentable space. The Richvale Room, with its 200-person capacity, is a wonderful space that\u2019s available for locals to rent out for social functions, corporate events, meetings, and wedding receptions.<\/p>

 <\/p>

The Burr House Craft Gallery and Tea Room is another pillar of the community acting as an artisan gallery and tea room. The Burr House Spinners and Weavers Guild and the Hill Potters Guild, which operate out of the Burr House, offer programs and courses to teach fibre arts such as weaving and sewing.  <\/p>

 <\/p>

Finally, the Richvale Public Library, on Pearson Avenue, offers a space for the community to run courses and programs throughout the year. <\/p>

The only fully enclosed shopping centre in Richmond Hill is located in Richvale. On Yonge Street, the Hillcrest Mall has recently been renovated and expanded with over 100 retail stores. Some of the stores introduced after the expansion are Indigo, Old Navy, and Marshalls & HomeSense, and has been anchored by Hudson\u2019s Bay, Aritzia, and Sporting Life.<\/p> <\/div>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” admin_label=”Divider” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” height=”64px” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Most dining options are located on the perimeter of Richvale\u2019s neighbourhood along Bathurst and Yonge Streets. A few minutes away from the Hillcrest Mall on Yonge Street is Caffe Demetre. This caf\u00e9 offers desserts like waffles, crepes, ice cream, and more. Another standout restaurant is the Redwoods Bistro inside the Richmond Hill Country Club.
