AI summary
Ash Holwell uses his inherited property portfolio to foster community rather than personal wealth. In Whangārei, he rents commercial spaces to charities like The Hospice Shop and Whakaora Kai.
In Wellington, he founded two/fiftyseven, a climate-positive coworking space, and converted an Eastbourne home into a co-living space for ten people. This innovative living arrangement champions carbon efficiency, shared parenting, and a strong support network, challenging traditional housing norms and demonstrating the power of community-focused property use.
