Deans Cottage, which was built in circa 1843 and where Jane and John first lived, is today the oldest building in Canterbury.
It is registered by Heritage New Zealand as a Category I structure, with registration number 3679, and features as a museum.
Riccarton House, which was built from circa 1855, is also registered as a Category I structure, with registration number 1868.
Until the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, it featured as a function venue, but is currently closed for repairs.

Riccarton Bush was donated by the Deans family to the people of Christchurch in 1914.
 At that time, it was formally protected through a campaign led by MP Harry Ell and botanist Dr. Leonard Cockayne.
 Today, the bush is administered by a trust.
The bush contains mostly kahikatea of between 400 and 600 years of age; it is the only lowland forest left in Christchurch, and is probably New Zealand's oldest protected natural area.
A predator-proof fence was installed in 2000, and the bush remains a popular urban visitor attraction.

The Christchurch suburb of Riccarton takes its name from the Riccarton farm.
Jane Deans Close is a recent subdivision street in Riccarton.
 A memorial seat for Jane Deans is placed at the top of the Bridle Path near the Canterbury Pioneer Women's Memorial.
