Riverstone is governed by a recorded Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (Williamson County Official Public Records, document 2023025511), recorded Design Guidelines (document 2023028978), a recorded Community Manual that includes generator and pool enclosure policies (document 2023025580) and a First Amendment recorded in 2026 (document 2026023876). The rules below are a plain-language summary.
- Rentals: Homes may be leased for at least 6 months, on a written lease. The owner must give the tenant the restrictions and send the Association a copy of the lease within 10 days.

- Approvals: Every improvement needs written approval from the architectural committee before work starts. Under the 2026 amendment, if the committee does not respond within 30 days the request is treated as denied, and silence on a variance is never approval.
- Home businesses: Allowed only if the business is not apparent from outside by sight, sound or smell, uses only residents as employees, has no door-to-door solicitation and adds no noticeable traffic or parking. Leasing a home is not treated as a business.
- Exterior materials: The first floor of every home must be masonry (native stone, clay brick or stucco), and the front of every two-story home must be masonry. Second-floor sides and rear may use cement-fiber lap or board and batten siding, except on corner lots and lots backing to main roads, where the second floor must be masonry.

- Garages and driveways: Every home needs an enclosed garage for at least 2 cars that matches the house. Driveways must be approved and have a salt rock finish.
- Parking and vehicles: Under the 2026 amendment, owners are encouraged to park in the garage and may use the driveway as overflow parking. No vehicle may block traffic or emergency access, and parking in the yard is not allowed.

- Fences: Fences need approval. The Guidelines call for 6-foot cedar picket fences with metal posts and a set stain color, no fence closer to the street than 4 feet behind the front of the house, and posts on the side away from the street. Fences visible from the road use horizontal pickets. Lots backing to open space or Association land use 6-foot wrought iron. Wire and chain-link fences are prohibited.

Sport courts may not be lighted or netted, tennis courts are not allowed, and permanent basketball goals sit at least 20 feet from the curb on a black metal pole. Portable goals must be stored out of sight from sundown to sunrise, and all goals need approval.
- Sheds and additions: One small detached accessory building (a cabana, garden building, storage building, detached garage or guesthouse) is allowed in the fenced back yard with approval, matching the house and shielded from the street. Decks need approval.
- Landscaping: Landscape plans need approval before move-in. Front and side yards must be fully sodded, backyards sodded within 30 days of occupancy, and each lot needs at least one hardwood shade tree (two on corner lots) and thirty 5-gallon shrubs.

Parts of the neighborhood lie in flood zones X and AE, and no improvements may be placed in the floodway. Detention and water quality ponds are Association-maintained and entry is not allowed. The Declaration also notes a private cemetery on open space within the neighborhood, with reasonable access provided.
- How long it lasts and how it changes: The Declaration runs through January 1, 2072, then renews automatically in 10-year periods unless 67% of the Association’s votes end it. During the Development Period the developer can amend it alone, which is how the 2026 amendment was recorded. Later it can be amended by 67% of votes.
This is a plain-language summary of recorded documents and is not legal advice. Later filings, plats and Association policies may add or change rules, and lot-specific rules depend on the lot. Confirm the documents for a specific lot with your title company.
