A man bought a new place in the UK 11 years ago only to find a hidden trapdoor in the floor that led to a room he hadn’t even known about…
One new homeowner was really shocked when he was handed the keys to his new home, only to find a trapdoor leading to a secret, underground man cave!
Bored Panda reported that the home in question was originally used as part of an English monastery from the 19th century. The property and its grounds were later converted into 30 modern apartments, one of which was purchased by the man in this story.
Apparently he got a good price for the apartment, as well as the bonus of a hidden room he hadn’t even know existed!
In front of the bathroom door, he found a handle on the floor leading to another area beneath the floorboards.
At first glance, the door looks like it leads simply to a small storage area. Yet when the man followed the stone steps descending down into the dark, he found something else entirely…
It turned out the space was far bigger than he had realized, even if it does more resemble a dungeon from a by-gone era than it does any sort of cellar or extra living space.
Even so, it raises a whole lot of questions, not least what the area might have been used for in the past?
