Riverview House, West Ryde, Heritage residence in West Ryde, Australia.

Riverview House is a heritage-listed former orchard and now residence at 135 Marsden Road, West Ryde, built from 1860 to 1878 by George Spurway. The brick house was built in three sections; the first was a two-room cottage facing the river, with no windows on its northern side facing Brush Farm House, and now forms the rear wing.

Riverview House was built in three stages between 1860 and 1878 by George Spurway the younger, a farmer who sold fruit from his Bathurst shop while buying three acres of Samuel Marsden's former Kingston Farm at the 1873 One Tree Hill auction. The property was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.

The name Riverview comes from the first two-room brick cottage, built facing the Parramatta River; its northern side, toward Brush Farm House, had no windows. George Spurway the younger, a Bathurst fruit seller, kept orchards in Sydney and returned to Dundas by 1878 with his wife Ann and daughters Annie and Eveline, who made their home here.

Riverview House stands at 135 Marsden Road, West Ryde, on private land and is not open to visitors. Its first section was a two-room cottage facing the river, with no windows on the northern side toward Brush Farm House; that section now forms the rear wing. The house was built in three sections, so look for the joins between them from the street.

The first section of Riverview was a two-room brick cottage facing the river, which gave the house its name; it has no windows on its northern side, facing Brush Farm House. This rear wing was later absorbed into a house built in three stages. George Spurway the younger bought the three-acre lot at the 1873 auction of the One Tree Hill estate.
