The 0.12 hectare plot includes land on either side of the detached block near Penzance.
It is the cheapest sea view accommodation in Cornwall and offers views of St Michael’s Mount, originally a Benedictine chapel.
The Long Rock toilet will be auctioned online on Wednesday – with a guide price of just £20,000.
A nearby one-bed apartment, without sea views, is for sale for £200,000.
Katie Semmens, from Clive Emson Land and Property Auctioneers, said: “This is a rare and exciting opportunity.
“It is in a truly spectacular location on the coast and offers stunning views.”
She added: “The toilets could have different uses in the future.”
In 2018, a buyer paid £73,000 for a toilet block in Newlyn, Cornwall.
Four years later one sold in Saltash for over £30,000.
