Listing Price: $5,999,000
Description of Property
Welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own Hardeman’s Secret Gardens—an enchanting, fully operational wedding and event venue combined with a luxury estate and income-producing business. This turnkey property spans over 10 beautifully landscaped acres in Dover, Florida, just minutes from Tampa. The main estate boasts over 13,000 sq ft under roof, featuring high-end designer furnishings (all included), a private resort-style pool, fountain spa, commercial outdoor kitchen, butterfly garden, and a golf-course-quality putting green in the front yard. A separately accessed apartment within the main home is currently used for the event center but can also serve as a rental or guest suite. The property also includes a stunning event center, chapel, greenhouse, general store, acres of nursery land for self-sustainability, plus multiple themed gardens ideal for weddings and private events. Included in the sale is 3505 Gallagher Rd, a fully updated home just outside the main gated entrance, currently used as an office and perfect for a guest house or continued business use. Additional features include multiple storage buildings, golf carts for transporting guests, and even a vintage Rolls-Royce for elegant arrivals. The venue has bookings through 2026, and all existing contracts, client lists, and financials will be turned over to the new owner—no blue sky pricing, just a proven business with real income. Zoned agricultural with low taxes, this property combines luxury living, self-sufficiency, and an established, cash-flowing business. Truly a rare opportunity in the Florida market.
