The floor plan is terrible... there is no way into the lounge from the rest of the flat.... maybe the person got bricked in!! Apparently you can only access it from the balcony.

That’s a beautiful flat op. I am unsure what you find spooky about it?

You'd need such a lot of money.

@bluntness, there isn't a door in the floorpan. The lounge, bathroom, kitchen and balcony are inaccessible to the rest of the flat.

Have they missed out a door somewhere?
There is no way to get onto the balcony from the rest of the flat.

The door to the lobby on the living room is shown in one of thr photos, you just have to do a bit of detective work to suss it out

But there is no door from the small lobby (off the living room) into the hallway. Only a door to another dead end - the bathroom.

Yes there is - you can see it on the photo I posted above

I would move in there tomorrow as is. I love it when I see a patterned carpet on homes under the hammer.

And it's on the floor plan.

Someone's forgotten to put the door from the hall onto the inner lobby between the bathroom and sitting room, that's all. You can also see it on the photos of the hall if you compare the doorways on thr floor plan

What have they done with all the people in Redcar?? Why is the promenade so totally silent??

Me neither, it’s a lovely spacious property thay clearly is a bit dated. When did dated become spooky?

Definitely creepy to me, agree about the shining- no way I’d be sleeping there 😆

Beautiful old building. Definitely haunted though. 👻

To be fair, I agree that the flat itself is lovely and could be gorgeous, its the corridors that I found spooky.

I must be a weirdo then because I absolutely love, love , love it….very unique property but yes would need plenty spending on it….

It’s gorgeous. The reason OP is saying it’s spooky is because the long corridor looks like the one in the Shining. If you haven’t seen the film you won’t get that.

It’s massive and cheap, something like that here on the south coast would be 4-5 times the cost of that!

I've seen the Shining and I get the reference.

That flat isn;t spooky to me though, just really dated. Obviously a former hotel, but the apartment is really large and spacious. A bit of updating and it could look amazing.

This is so weird. It's a beautiful building inc. the corridors.

Are you trying to imply it's spooky because the building looks like the kind of place a film might use for a mental institution?

If so be very ashamed of yourself

The Shining isn't set in a mental hospital... that's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

The Shining is set in a hotel which has been closed up for the winter.
