We looked at a few places in Renfrew when we were house-shopping last year; ended up in Tuxedo instead. Definitely bigger lots/houses are available; lots of parks as well. One thing I would mention -- do you take transit at all? The #17 bus service appears to be much less frequent than the #3 or even the #4/#5 that goes along Edmonton Trail. Someday if I can afford to drive to work downtown I would definitely re-consider the area.
We also looked at Mount Pleasant as well but didn't find anything in our price range that wasn't a tiny old shack. Can I ask why Harvest Hills? We used to live up in North Central and there are some nice houses up there in a pretty well established community, but not a whole lot else (except maybe the golf course).
