House & land packages


developers, builders, creative thinkers - No Corporate BS, Just Real People Who Care.

At Kingston Group, it starts with you — your land, your lifestyle, your future. We take the time to understand how you want to live, then design a home that brings it to life.

Our house and land packages aren’t off the shelf. Every home is shaped with intention — practical layouts, modern features, and a process that’s made to feel clear, simple, and stress-free.

We believe good design should make life easier, not more complicated. That’s why every Kingston home is crafted to suit the section it sits on, the people who’ll live in it, and the moments that will unfold inside. It’s not about square metres — it’s about smarter spaces, better flow, and getting the little details right.

From sketch to walkthrough and beyond, we’re with you the whole way — backed by our Kingston Maintenance Commitment and a 10-Year Master Build Guarantee.

ACHITECTUALLy designed homes built with style AND INNOVAITON

Founded in 2020 by Nathan Finlay, Connect Homes brings over 30 years of construction experience and a drive to rethink how homes are built. Nathan’s focus on innovation leads everything we do.

We design and build homes that stand out — combining bold architectural features with quality New Zealand-made materials. With a tight-knit team and an efficient process, we deliver well-crafted homes, faster, without compromising on detail.

At River Gardens, we build and sell completed homes — architecturally designed, finished to a high standard, and ready for you to move into. Everything is taken care of upfront, so you can simply step into a quality home without the wait.

Tell us a bit about you & we’ll take it from there.
