Project details
Rave Review: Kingston Group - Senior Friendly Townhouses
Location: Te Awamutu
MVP Rave Feature: Gantt Scheduling and Contractor Communications
Rave is our one-stop project management hub, keeping our entire construction process connected and running smoothly in the cloud.
With so many moving parts, our Project Manager, Ross, fields over 50 calls a day, navigating constant updates and changes.
The ability to connect our contractors directly to the Gantt chart in Rave is priceless, they have real-time visibility on their schedules, their place in the build, and what’s coming next.
This streamlined communication reduces delays, keeps our projects on track, and ensures everyone is aligned every step of the way.
At Kingston Group, we’re creative problem-solvers, developers, and enablers of opportunity.
We specialise in smart property development, from boutique subdivisions to high-quality housing solutions that support real people at different life stages.
With over 100 homes built across 30+ projects in just five years, we know how to unlock the full potential of land and create housing that works, whether it’s senior-friendly homes, compact urban builds, or high-yield investment properties.
We manage everything end-to-end, from concept and design through to council consents, construction, and final handover. And we stand by our work with a 10 year Master Builders Guarantee and an approach that prioritises quality, efficiency, and long-term value.
At Kingston, we’re driven by one simple purpose: Connect & Enable—helping everyday people create homes, opportunities, and a better future.
983 Alexandra Street in Te Awamutu is a standout project for Kingston Group, designed with a clear purpose beyond traditional property development. Rather than building generic homes for broad resale, this project was about creating a smarter, senior-friendly housing solution—one that allows people to downsize without downgrading.
These homes prioritise ease of living, accessibility, and low maintenance, ensuring residents can age in place comfortably. Features like single-level layouts, wider doorways, step-free entry, and smart energy-efficient design make them ideal for retirees looking for a simpler, more manageable home while maintaining their independence.
983 Alexandra Street exemplifies what we do best—thoughtful, high-quality housing solutions that meet real community needs.
