Sure, I’m myself planning on being in a place like that, in Quebec, eventually. Just saying that’s the reason it’s cheap, not because it’s Quebec. I’m sure you can get similar prices in bum-fuck nowhere in whales or the Highlands or something.
I live in British Columbia, that property would pull in probably $800,000 here. Even when I was in Alberta pre COVID that would have gotten probably $500,000.
I am unsure how much land is coming with the house, but if it is acreage/hobby farm size it’d fetch a bit more probably, but it it is just a house that is part of some unincorporated area it’d be a bit less but the difference is significant going from western Canada to anything east of Alberta that isn’t Ontario.
I’m not going to give a definite yes to that, I’m a Northerner and it’s a completely different world up here, but from what I can gather your assessment is pretty accurate.
That’s a feature.

As in, in similarly remote areas? If that’s the case then I’ll count myself lucky that it’s Québec I’ll likely move to next.

1 acre, close to a town and a village, 40 minutes away from a city of 200k+ citizens.
That sounds like heaven except for the needing a car side of that.
It looks like those criteria would make it too close to Vancouver to be less than 2 million for a 3 bed.
Vancouver = Montreal
Kelowna = Sherbrooke
Merritt = Val-des-Sources
So it’s like living in a village somewhere between Merritt and Vancouver but very close to Merritt
