The space An architectural retreat in one of Atlantic Canada’s most storied coastal villages. Welcome to The Sunset House, a striking new-build in the heart of historic Trinity, designed by celebrated heritage architect Frank Lepoint. Thoughtfully positioned to embrace the surrounding landscape, the home is wrapped in breathtaking ocean views on all four sides — a rare vantage point that makes the changing light and weather part of the daily experience. Begin your mornings watching the sun rise over the Fort Point Lighthouse, and end your evenings as it melts into the bay, delivering one of the most spectacular sunset ocean views on the Bonavista Peninsula. Whether shrouded in mist, glowing in golden hour, or alive with passing whales and seabirds, the horizon is always moving, always beautiful. Step outside and you’re immersed in Trinity’s vibrant cultural life. Everything is within walking distance: the region’s elite fine dining, the renowned Rising Tide Theatre, whale-watching tours, the dramatic heights of Gunn Hill, secret swimming holes, Sweet Rock Ice Cream, and Aunt Sarah’s Chocolate Shop & Espresso Bar (a personal favourite in our home). And of course, the iconic local gathering place, Rocky’s Place, is just down the road. A short drive brings you to Port Rexton Brewery and Grilled Cheese, the beloved Two Whales Vegetarian Restaurant, and the jaw-dropping coastal beauty of the Skirwink Trail. There is no better place on the island to experience the richness of Newfoundland’s art, culture, nature, heritage — and its future — than Trinity.
