About the host
Hosted by Bryan Martin
Your hosts hail from a suburb of Boston and an eastern North Carolina farm. Fate brought them together. The apartment was originally home offices, as both work from home. It is called Paradox Place because both husband and wife earned their doctorate degrees at NC State University. So we are a "Pair 'o Doc's."
Why they chose this property
Paradox Place is in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful view of the Intra-Coastal Waterway. You can sit outside and hear the waves crash on the beach a few hundred yards away. But to visit the beach requires a 4-5 minute car ride, as Davis Canal and marshes separate Paradox from the sand.
