The Experience
Welcome to Leslie Ave, a warm inviting retreat in the heart of Independence. From the moment you arrive, the home feels calm and familiar… the kind of place where mornings begin with fresh coffee and soft natural light, and evenings settle into easy laughter, shared meals, and unhurried comfort.
It is a space created for slowing down, reconnecting, and feeling at home even when you are away from yours. After exploring nearby Independence Square or soaking in the excitement of a game at Arrowhead, this is the peaceful place you return to for rest and togetherness.

• A private fenced backyard with lounge seating for quiet coffee moments or evening conversation
• Spa inspired touches including plush robes available for use or purchase
Every corner of the home is arranged to make your stay easy and enjoyable whether you are here for one night or an extended visit.
