Description
Exceptional opportunity to own a turnkey, year-round commercial greenhouse operation on 4.83 acres in one of Niagara's premier agricultural locations, bordering St. Catharines and Niagara-on-the-Lake. Offering approximately 80,000 sq. ft. of fully automated greenhouse space, this property is ideal for expanding an existing operation or launching a new commercial growing business.The greenhouse features automated climate control, including vents, energy curtains, humidity control, irrigation, fertilization systems, boilers, and environmental controls designed for efficient, year-round production. Suitable for vegetables, fruits, flowers, botanicals, nursery products, and specialty crops.Included in the sale is a complete lineup of greenhouse equipment, including a forklift, seeding and sowing equipment, soil handling equipment, and more, allowing a seamless transition for the next owner.The property also includes two homes, offering excellent opportunities for owner occupancy, staff housing, or rental income, plus a 4,200 sq. ft. barn for additional storage or operational use.Backing onto the Welland Canal, the property benefits from an abundant water source and includes three large cisterns.
