An abandoned gold mining town in Canada is up for sale for the bargain price of less than $1 million, CBC News reported.
The British Columbia settlement of Bradian, a ghost town dating back to the early 1900s, has the potential to be a lucrative tourist attraction, with its mountain views and a mine that was one of Canada's biggest gold producers.
Though real estate agent John Lovelace believes in the 50-acre town's potential, he wants buyers to know the town is in shambles. All 22 houses are dilapidated.
"Don't bring a paint can and a paint brush and expect to double your money," Lovelace told CBC News.
Bradian, on the market since 2010, is currently available for an estimated $907,000.
"Your chance to own an entire townsite with 22 buildings, on over 50 acres, with some of the original utilities still intact, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," reads a listing for the ghost town.
But Lovelace remains hopeful because the mine recently began operating again.
"I think they have 60 people back working there," he told CBC News. "So there's still gold in them there hills."
