We invite you to stay in our beautiful, independent, and private in-law suite (we do live upstairs). There is an outdoor patio with hanging lights and seating in a fenced backyard. Very close to beautiful Shawnee Mission Park. One exit from Lenexa City Center. We are about 10 minutes from the Kansas City Speedway and Children’s Mercy Park and 20 minutes from Downtown Kansas City. The in-law suite is on the lower level of the home. There is one step to enter, but no steps inside. We do have two toddlers and two dogs, so there will be some level of noise during busy times of the day. You will have the entire lower level of the home to yourself. There is a lock between the levels to ensure separation and privacy. There is a keyless lock and separate driveway/entrance, so you may come and go as you please. I work from home in my office upstairs, so I will be onsite during your stay. If you need anything while you are here, I am more than happy to accommodate reasonable requests. Quiet, friendly neighborhood. Hilly, but great for walks. Convenient location 5 minutes from Walmart, Target, grocery stories, etc. There is a movie theater and several restaurants within 5 minutes. Our dogs do have access to a doggy door leading to the backyard, so they may be outside during the day from time to time. I can bring them inside upon arrival/leaving, so please let me know your preference. They are friendly, but can be loud at times.
