Description

This is a leasehold property.The Vanillerie was opened as a unique tourist attraction in 2016, after some 10 years of detailed and positive onsite research trials. Located on a 5.9 acre farm in the Keahole Agricultural Park just 5 minutes from the Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport, the farm was previously the site of a major nursery operation producing seedling eucalyptus and sandal wood trees. The infra-structure of the nursery operation is still in place and could be reactivated if desired.The Vanillerie is an impressive and innovative working vanilla farm that occupies a relatively small portion of the total farm area. Included with the vanilla farm is an adjacent well presented gift shop that sells vanilla products along with other agricultural products produced on the island. The Vanillerie is a very popular tourist destination that is consistently ranked high on the list of Big Island attractions by Trip Advisor. Guided and narrated tours of the vanilla shade houses allow tourists to learn about this fascinating and intriguing vining orchid that requires hand pollination and produces a highly sought after spice.The Vanillerie offers an exciting opportunity to own a business with real growth potential.Utilization of the area previously used by the Tree Nursery could allow for a major expansion of the vanilla growing area.Included in the sale are:-*. 3bd/1.5ba manager's residence.*. 4 vanilla shade houses.*. 2 metal clad buildings--retail and storage.*. Nursery seeding building with workshop.*. Luxury safari camp.*. Office/warehouse building*. Nursery equipment--commercial seeder, Kubota tractor & Wallenstein chipper.*. Half acre of producing fruit orchard.*. Irrigation throughout the property.*. State Agricultural Lease: Yearly lease fee is $4,370.00.
