Rare opportunity to lease or purchase approximately 90,000 sq.ft. Venlo-style greenhouse facility situated on 4.8 acres in the heart of Niagara Region. Existing greenhouse heating system has sustained major damage and requires repair or replacement; property is therefore ideally suited for storage, seasonal growing, nursery operations, warehouse overflow, agri-commercial uses, logistics, contractor yard, hydroponic projects, cold-tolerant crops, packaging, or distribution businesses. Features include three-phase power, natural gas service, loading dock, package barn/warehouse area, ample parking, wide driveway access, and fully fenced secured yard. Excellent location with convenient access to QEW, Niagara wineries, farming operations, and GTA markets. Flexible leasing options may be available, including partial occupancy, seasonal use, outdoor storage, or customized tenant arrangements. Excellent opportunity for businesses seeking large covered space at competitive occupancy costs without premium heated greenhouse pricing. Property is also offered for sale, and the asking price is negotiable.
