Following his father's passing, Ash Holwell uses his inherited property portfolio to build communities. In Whangārei, he rents to charities like Whakaora Kai, while in Wellington he founded two/fiftyseven, a climate-positive coworking space.
Ash has also transformed a home in Eastbourne into a co-living space for four couples. This innovative arrangement promotes carbon efficiency, shared parenting, and a strong support network, offering a unique model for community-focused living in Aotearoa.
