Our name

Zen, with the family at its core.

The name carries two meanings. Zen — for the simple, thoughtful, focused way we approach every site. And the first letters of the Zahoruiko family, where each name represents a generation invested in this work.

It's a quiet reminder that what we build is meant to endure beyond us. Zendko was organized as the natural evolution of Tom Zahoruiko's forty years in real estate development, construction, and finance. From that foundation, our mission has stayed the same: create inspiring, sensible neighborhoods and homes that appeal to all demographics, lifestyles, and life-stages — with sensitivity to family, community, environment, and quality of life.

Land conservation

We're proud that of the 450 acres Zendko has purchased for development, nearly 80% — 351.75 acres — has been placed into permanent land conservation and preservation.

Active agriculture, woodlands, hilltops, meadows, ruins, hiking trails, wetlands, recreational fields, parks, and ponds — protected in partnership with the Essex County Greenbelt, whose mission is to ensure free access to nature for all, now and forever.
