Plopped between the great green ridges of Canada's Forillon National Park and the wide-open waters of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, this Quebec home for sale is an unassuming dot on the wildflower-covered shore. But it presents a potentially life-changing opportunity: an escape to seaside seclusion in one of the most beautiful corners of the province at the tip of the Gaspé peninsula.

The four-bedroom, one-bathroom house is on the market for $359,000.

The new owners will get what they pay for: a cramped kitchen, seemingly outdated fixtures and tiny bedrooms all wrapped in a worn log cabin aesthetic.

But the humble home is merely a stage for those majestic vistas. And the house does capitalize on them with a wrap-around porch and picture windows framing the view from the loft bedroom above the open living area.

And despite its rusticity, it does have some basic comforts, including electric heating, running water courtesy of a nearby well, a washer and dryer, and a septic tank.
