Truman National Historic District, this home is part of a neighborhood rich in history and closely connected to the legacy of our hometown President. Originally part of William McCoy’s estate, the land was subdivided in the late 19th century to form what is now the charming McCauley Park neighborhood. Built in 1921 and thoughtfully renovated in 2014, this cozy bungalow retains its traditional and Craftsman character, featuring original hardware, flooring, and built-ins throughout. With its eclectic charm and festive spirit, our home warmly welcomes you this holiday season.10 AM - 8 PMSilver Heart Inn and Cottages, Home of Charles Kistler1114 S Noland Rd., Independence, MO 64050Originally built in 1856, the Stone-Gamble home was designed in the elegant Greek Revival style, showcasing symmetry, balance, and proportion through its preserved trim and architectural details. The original structure consisted of two large rectangular wings arranged in an L-shape, facing Main Street. In the 1920s, homeowner George W. Jennings made a bold transformation—splitting the L-shaped structure into two separate buildings and repositioning them to face Noland Road. This change created two distinct homes from the original design. Today, only the rear section of the original house remains, expanded upon by Roy Gamble in later years. This storied property now serves as the Silver Heart Inn, continuing its legacy as a cherished piece of local history.10 AM - 8 PMCal & Sharron Closson16621 E. George Franklyn Dr., Independence, MO 64055Built in 1971, this charming four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home in the Milton Estates Subdivision blends classic design with thoughtful modern updates. A major renovation of the main floor seven years ago brought new life to the space, including a raised great room floor, a custom fireplace façade with a stylish mantle, and built-in bookcases on either side—perfect for cozy evenings and curated displays. The open layout flows seamlessly into a fully updated kitchen, complete with a walk-out patio ideal for morning coffee or evening gatherings. A newly added pantry and coffee bar offer a delightful spot for a fresh brew any time of day. The addition of a formal dining room and welcoming entryway creates a warm space for hosting family and friends. With a love for quirky antiques and festive flair, decorating for the holidays is a joyful tradition here. From snowmen and gingerbread to a growing collection of Harry Potter-themed décor, each piece adds to the home’s unique charm and seasonal spirit.10 AM - 8 PMDavid & Sharon Rock209 NW Locust Drive, Blue Springs, MO 64014This home sparkles with holiday spirit, each room lovingly adorned with festive décor that evokes cherished memories of family and friends. Special Christmas trees grace every space, each one a nostalgic nod to holidays past. To capture the childlike wonder of the season, the grandchildren have painted and decorated a large Christmas dollhouse—a joyful centerpiece that brings smiles to all who see it. Downstairs, a dedicated room has been transformed into Santa’s workshop, brimming with toys, laughter, and holiday cheer. From whimsical touches to heartfelt traditions, this home leaves visitors with a lasting sense of Christmas magic and a sprinkle of seasonal sparkle.10 AM - 5 PMSweet Shop - St Luke's United Church of Christ727 N Main, Independence, MO 64050Indulge your sweet tooth while making a meaningful impact—support the Independence Young Matrons’ philanthropic mission by purchasing homemade candy, cookies, and other irresistible delights at the Sweet Shop.
