Cochato Nursery – A Botanical Landmark with Strong Cash Flow
Business Description
Cochato Nursery presents an exceptional live-work opportunity combining a thriving 34-year-old nursery business with a beautifully restored 3BR/2.5BA home on 3 acres in Holbrook, MA. Established in 1991, this botanical landmark has earned national recognition, being featured in the American Hosta Society Journal and included on the National Hosta Garden Tour.
The business specializes in native and exotic plants, ponds, fountains, and garden art - offering unique inventory not available at big box retailers. With minimal competition and strong cash flow, Cochato Nursery has built a loyal customer base and national reputation despite having virtually no digital marketing presence, indicating significant untapped growth potential.
The sale includes the complete nursery operation with inventory, retail shop, landscaped display gardens, and all real estate. The recently renovated home features updated systems, a brand new roof, and an attached charming barn conversion providing flexible living space.
With 2 employees and decades of established operations, this turnkey opportunity offers both immediate income and substantial expansion possibilities. The retiring owners are committed to supporting a smooth transition. This rare combination of profitable business and quality residential property represents an ideal investment for someone seeking both lifestyle and financial returns in the growing nursery and garden center industry.
