You'd be the homeowner, sort of. 🏠

While the world has turned digital and working remotely or changing careers entirely is more common than ever, you may find yourself searching for dwellings in more off-grid areas. If you've been hunting around, passively or actively, for homes for sale in B.C., you may want to take a gander at this little beauty. 

Located near Sechelt on the Sunshine Coast, the remote, cottage-style abode can either be used as a one or two-bedroom home and honestly, it's just the cutest thing we've ever seen. 

The land is on a First Nations Lease until 2030 so while you'll act as the homeowner, you will need to pay a $360 lease fee each month. Add that to your estimated $345.93 mortgage cost every month and you've got a whole house for less than it costs to rent a room in Vancouver.

There is a cozy living area with a wood stove, a huge back yard that's totally fenced in, and a detached shed that you could even turn into a little studio or office if you love solitude. 

The place is located "right across the road from the Selma Park boat launch, and a short stroll into Sechelt," says the listing. 

It's quite tiny, counting in at only 788-square-feet. But, what it lacks in size it makes up for in charm. 

If you're tired of city life and you're longing to be near the ocean, this is your perfect little hideout.
