Rare Residential Kennel / Live-Work Opportunity...This property offers a unique live-work opportunity within one of Newport Beach’s most distinctive and little-known enclaves — Riverside Drive, a corridor recognized for its concentration of residential dog kennels and pet-focused businesses. Ideal for owner-operators, breeders, trainers, or entrepreneurs, the residence includes an established kennel operation designed for flexibility and scalability.The kennel setup supports multiple styles of care: dogs may run free in secure outdoor areas or be housed in individual pens with structured exercise, grooming, and handling routines. The layout is well-suited for boarding, breeding, training, grooming, daycare, or private use for show or personal dogs, allowing a future owner to tailor services to their preferred model. Riverside Drive is known among pet professionals as a functional and proven environment for kennel operations, with neighboring properties offering a range of licensed services, run counts, and specialty uses. Having successfully sold multiple residential kennel properties on this street, there is demonstrated buyer demand for this rare combination of residence and business potential.
The investment appeal is underscored by the strength of the industry itself. The U.S. pet industry generates approximately $147 billion annually, with continued growth driven by premium boarding, grooming, training, and wellness services as pets are increasingly treated as family members.
Whether operated as a private kennel for breeding or showing, or expanded into a full-service entrepreneurial venture, this property represents a rare asset — combining lifestyle, income potential, and long-term relevance in a resilient, high-growth sector.
