Kosher Kitchens All the Rage in New Homes
By Mary Damiano
Gourmet kitchens have long been a big selling point in new homes. But now, builders are getting even more niche-oriented with their amenities, and designing kosher kitchens in units in walking distance to synagogues.
When Wyndsong Estates were was built near an orthodox synagogue last year in Boynton Beach, they included a kosher kitchen—two sinks, two dishwashers, two ovens and plenty of counter space. The 55 single-family homes sold out in less than a year.
The “kosher home” concept is being marketed to young traditional Jews who want to be near a synagogue and want to keep a kosher kitchen. Buying a home with such a kitchen built in saves a costly, time-consuming renovation.
The concept is so successful in fact, that other communities are in the works, such as Wyndsong Isles, about a half mile away from Wyndsong estates, as well as two kosher home communities in northeast Miami-Dade County.
