A remote, private island off the coast of Maine with a cottage but no indoor bathroom is looking for a hardy buyer, one that won't mind washing up in the brisk Atlantic Ocean waters or relieving themselves in the nearby outhouse.
The cottage - and outhouse - are located on Duck Ledges Island, a 1.1-acre oasis off the rugged coast near Addison and about 80 miles east of Bangor, with a listing price of $339,000, according to the real estate listing.

'The ledges surrounding the island are loaded with seals for constant entertainment,' the listing reads. 'As it has no trees, it offers views of nature that you can't find anywhere else.'
