About this property

Historical Church 3BR Hideaway

Built in 1867, this breathtaking little rock church in Lattnerville Iowa looks almost identical on the outside as it did over 150 years ago. Originally dedicated in honor of the Blessed Virgin as St Mary's Catholic Church, parishoners worshipped for 22 years throughout prosperous times, hardships, extensive remodeling, fires and closures. The last scheduled Mass for what eventually became the Annunciation Church was held in 1989 with only special occasion services held until 2012 when the sacred vessels were transported to St. John the Baptist Church in Peosta, Iowa. In 2013 the church was sold at auction and underwent a massive restoration eventually transpiring to the Lattnerville Church Inn.

The Fresh landscape and welcoming patio lead the visitor to doors that open to décor of country sensibility, treasured history, and modern conveniences. Three charming bedrooms with private baths are located on opposing balconies, all part of an overall open concept floor plan. The main floor living space features a state of the art kitchen with custom cabinetwork and décor, and ample seating in the kitchen, dining and entertaining areas. This casual and comfortable architectural wonder is the perfect host for the intimate family/friend reunion; a peaceful retreat for the history and nature lover, and the tranquil escape for the busy urbanite looking to slowdown and enjoy the wonders of local wineries, scenic bike trails, ski resorts, and historical venues. The Lattnerville Church Inn has the best of the mid-west all a short distance away.

Three bedrooms with private baths sleep six, with additional sleeping for two additional guests accommodating a total of eight.

Two ovens, two sinks, a generous kitchen island and custom cabinets make meal prep and cooking an experience itself. Wineries, local restaurants, and grocery are all a short 10-minute drive away.

A beautifully manicured lawn with flower beds and charming gates and fencing frame the walkways. A large patio and pergola will make morning coffee, a steak grilled on the outdoor grill, or friendly conversation even more enjoyable.

Beautiful inside and out
Great place to spend the weekend with a few friends. The countryside surrounding the church is great and the inn itself is great. No complaints.
