Kinfold · Intergenerational homes on the Kāpiti Coast

So we're building neighbourhoods where renters, owners, retirees and young families live side by side, and look out for each other on purpose.

Renting with kids?

Rent that comes with a village.

Young family?

Twelve adults who know your kid's name.

Retired, or nearly?

Grandparents by choice.

Four ways in.
One village.

01 · Rent

Unpack for good.

Secure, long-term homes at a range of rents. No more moving the kids every year.

02 · Own

Roots that hold.

Shared equity or full ownership, in a place built to keep its value and its people.

03 · Retire

Independent, never alone.

Your own front door, people of every age next door, and help on hand when you want it.

04 · Visit

Drop in.

Come for the on-site café, drop-in childcare or the wellness facilities. You don't have to live here to be part of it.

Why we're building this.

Shadoe, founder

I was 24 when my dad died, and I wasn't able to look after him the way I wanted to. Now I'm raising my daughter, and I want her to know the neighbours by name, and getting older to mean more company, not less. For twelve years I've helped people tell the story of a better world. Kinfold is my go at building that.
