Business Overview:
This is a unique business opportunity in a beautiful area of southwest Montana. The primary business is a state of the art dog kennel that boards both dogs and cats. The owner has housed over 100 dogs at one time and has averaged 80 dogs on the weekends during the summer. The owner has built a kennel that is better than any in the local area with dog runs, heating and cooling for the animals, excellent lighting, a security system and an alarm system that rings every time someone pulls onto the parking lot. This kennel is recommended by most of the local vets and has a large customer base of happy customers. The land behind the kennel is a pasture that is used to board horses and the horse boarding operation could be expanded or the acreage could be used for other purposes. This operation also has a retail cement figure business, such as figures of angels, horses, dogs, some water fountains, that are sold from the back of the property. A dog groomer rents space in the kennel and that rental amount is listed as other income. The owner and his wife run the kennel with part time help from local school students. The land portion of the property that is available for purchase from the owner includes a large three bedroom two story house that the owner has 80% remodeled with fine furnishings. The home has a enclosed deck and room for a hot tub. The total price for the land and property is 2.6 million and the land and business will be sold together. The property also includes two apartments that are in a separate structure that would probably rent for 700 dollars and if the new owner wanted to rent the house it would rent for 1600 dollars a month. Above the kennel there is a large room that could be used for additional businesses or could be rented for additional income. The owner does most of his own repairs and he has a fully equipped shop and a two car garage. There is additional property that could be developed for housing or mini storage rental units. The property backs up to one of the most famous trout streams in Montana. In fact, the owner has water rights to the river and uses water from this well known stream for his pastures. From the master bedroom of the house you can see the nearby mountain peaks. The business is located in a small town with low tax rates. The property is available through the owner.
