About this house rental

Located in the quaint town of Stewiacke, touted as halfway between the north pole and equator, this former church has been been converted in to a beautiful open concept home where century charm meets modern style.

Entering the home, ones eyes are immediately drawn to the 28ft wood ceilings and two of the original stained glass windows, backlit with remote controlled accent lighting.

Tucked away up in the new loft addition, you'll find a large, yet cozy king size bed to ensure you'll have a comfortable sleep, and a chest of drawers offers plenty of space to organize your clothes during your stay. A large flat screen TV can be watched from the comfort of bed and a cozy nook with a couch is the perfect place to curl up and read a book.

This home has a beautiful sitting/living area, furnished with a comfortable couch that can also be used for additional sleep space, and a large flat screen TV with cable, android box and Netflix.

Where the altar once was, is now a spacious eat-in kitchen. Crisp, clean and modern, this kitchen is fully equipped for all of your cooking needs. Enjoy a tasty home cooked meal around the huge dining room table, or sip a quiet cup of coffee at the bistro set and watch the passersby through the window.

This home is entirely open concept, with the exception of the spacious bathroom. Looking much like a walkway to an outside entrance, this bathroom is brightly lit, has an elegant glass walk-in shower, washer, dryer, and ample counter space.

Outside is sure to please, as well as this property boasts a large 12 x 30 veranda that is seasonally furnished with plenty of comfortable seating space, a dining set and barbecue.

During your stay, you'll have the convenience of keyless entry, free WiFi and cable TV. Air conditioning for the hot summer days, and a wood stove for those chilly winter nights.

*Guest Access*
Guests will have access to the main level of the home, including the veranda.
Host is on-site in the lower part of the house. The door connecting the two floors is locked from both sides for the privacy of both host and guests.

We loved this unique and stunning renovated church with all its special touches and cozy spaces. It was perfectly clean and fully equipped. We enjoyed coffee on the veranda, reading in the belfry, sleeping in the comfy bed and discovering all the themed artistic touches. The smart features were cool too. We’d love to visit again.

The church is incredible, great host, probably the cleanest, most well equipped place I have ever stayed in. Jim, the host is friendly and welcoming. Easy check in. Great spot with a lovely park across the street. There’s a great little breakfast spot in the park with free coffee for the guests of the church. The park has the best looking community garden with neat, raised beds. We are Four senior family members and we throughly enjoyed every minute of our stay. Thanks Jim!

Loved it! Homely, eccentric, a stunning conversion. We had a great time in this gorgeous space and it was the perfect family base from which to explore and a ‘home’ to return to. My son and I loved hearing an approaching train and sprinting down to the crossing to see them pass. 😆 Jim is delightfully passionate about his place and rightly so, look forward to coming back!

We absolutely loved TheTrinity! This was by far the most unique property we’ve ever stayed in! From the size to the amazing decor & outdoor veranda it was truly incredible! We liked the location as it is a short drive to either Truro or Halifax. I only wish we could have stayed longer to really enjoy everything it had to offer! What a transformation from a church to an amazing property! Thank you Jim!

We really enjoyed our stay in this very unique rental. The space is so beautiful and we really felt quite special - like we were staying in a work of art. Jim was very kind and helped us get settled and involved the kids which was great. They loved the lights and the jungle theme! The outdoor space is really pretty as well. We wish we'd had more time to enjoy it. Thank you very much for creating such a wonderful space and opening it up for us to enjoy! The café across the street is great as well!

Amazing home with every amenity. The owner was good to deal with. My 5 year old niece said she felt like a princess staying in a ‘castle.’ I suppose it does have that feel. It was very clean. Will stay again and certainly recommend.

The pictures simply do not do The Trinity justice - from the 25’ vaulted ceilings to the perfectly (and completely) appointed kitchen, we could not have imagined a better location for our weekend away. I am already booking it again! Jim was an amazing host, friendly and helpful. A gorgeous fire in the wood stove to keep away the chill, and a huge TV to watch our scary movie on for Halloween - in a word, perfect. My only regret was leaving.

From the moment we opened the door we were very impressed. The renovation was done so well -maintaining the character of a small town church as well as updating the kitchen and living spaces to create a comfortable and inviting stay. Our host, Jim, was wonderful and very helpful. We ;would definitely recommend staying here and are looking forward to returning soon.

What a great place to stay! The photos really don't do this space justice - think full cathedral wood ceilings and all of the lovely charms of an old church but cozy and comfortable. We loved using the wood stove and the huge kitchen for making all of our meals. Would love to come back soon.

This property has everything you could possibly need and more. Very comfy king-sized bed, the best bathroom ever, laundry room, and fabulous kitchen as well as a deck with Bar BQ. The renovations to this church are truly beautiful and authentic. Many special touches have been added, such as stained-glass that is backlit, remote controls for all the electronics (lights in kitchen, TV, stereo, etc...), dimmer switches on all lights and two wonderful ceiling fans. We were able to totally relax and feel at home here. Jim was a great host who responded to any and every request almost immediately. Highly recommend this little piece of heaven.
