The Herb Garden is one of the Ottawa Valley's most established destination properties, a turn-key business with multiple revenue streams already in motion. Set on 14 landscaped acres, this is a rare chance to step into an enterprise that took decades to build. The wedding venue is the centrepiece. A premier name in the region, it draws couples from across Eastern Ontario for receptions of 75 to 100 guests inside a beautifully converted heritage barn, complete with bar and catering prep space. The Bergamot Barn houses bridal and groom suites plus a weather-proof indoor ceremony option, while landscaped grounds offer multiple outdoor ceremony sites and ample room for tented events at greater scale. Comfrey Cottage, the original homestead, operates as a gift shop and gallery, an additional retail touchpoint for visiting guests. A long-running nursery business adds a second income stream. Two heated greenhouses and a shaded structure supply herbs and perennials to a loyal customer base each spring, with clear runway to extend the season and grow through targeted marketing. A solar installation generates roughly $11,000 to $12,000 per year in supplemental income, with several years remaining on the contract. A four bedroom farmhouse on site provides owner or staff accommodation. Four historic barns and recent upgrades to key systems round out the infrastructure picture, an operationally sound asset, not a project. Established brand. Diversified income. Strong community roots. Properties like this almost never come to market. Contact the listing agents for revenue figures and a full information package.
