Demand for Houses With Two Kitchens Spikes in L.A. Amid Pandemic

Homeowners usually use one kitchen as a showpiece and family-friendly area and the other serves as a prep kitchen. David Kelmemson of Compass, currently has a listing for an 11,600-square-foot, seven-bedroom and, yes, two-kitchen home in Pacific Palisades. On the market for $11.995M, it includes a family kitchen — “your everyday place to make cereal or toast,” says Kelmenson — and a prep kitchen located down a short hallway. “It’s the work-horse, if [the owners] are cooking Thanksgiving or they have a private chef or caterer come in.”
