About the host

Hosted by Dorian Hill

Host profile image
I am an artist and real estate agent licensed in Georgia and North Carolina and have enjoyed hosting guests since 2013. My husband John is a film decorator, together we have had a blast renovating and decorating our own listings. The Ice Palace was our first! We hope you enjoy what we have created!

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property for its location and potential, it was a typical 60's brick ranch with original shag carpet and all. I completely gutted the house, opened the main living area along with many other modifications great and small, and have since added a modern driveway, and landscaping to the front. It is our home when we are in town as you will surely feel it has been loved!

What makes this property unique

I loved the proximity to the beach and used to ride my bike there often. I enjoy how central it is to most everything in Wilmington, and often walk to the local coffee shop about a 5 minute walk through the adjacent neighborhood. I love waking up to hear the birds in the morning.
