Real Estate Roundup: Furry Creatures In The Kitchen Edition

Real Estate Roundup: Furry Creatures In The Kitchen Edition

As city dwellers, our homes are a bit like the furry woodland creatures that we encounter on a daily basis. We pay them little heed, but it’s incredible to see them thrive in our concrete, glass, and steel environment. So, the next time you wake up to find a raccoon in your kitchen, digging through your cereal boxes, don’t chase it out. Make it feel at home. Because that’s the sort of hospitality that defines Ditmas Park and Kensington.
