An old morgue complete with an original embalming room has sold for \u00a3137,000 \u2014 or over $170,000 in U.S. dollars.<\/p>\n

That’s more than twice its asking price, SWNS reported of the sale this week.<\/p>\n

The spooky property<\/a> was put up for auction with an estimate of around \u00a355,000, or roughly $68,000 in U.S. dollars, by John Pye Auctions, according to the British news service.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Auctioneers warned buyers that the dilapidated building in Leek, in the county of Staffordshire, England<\/a>, was in need of a full refurbishment \u2014 or even demolition.<\/p>\n

Rundown condition and all, however, the former morgue attracted bidders, with some potential buyers saying they wanted to turn it into “a spooky-themed Airbnb,” said SWNS.<\/p>\n

The old mortuary \u2014 which was last used to tend the dead some 20 years ago \u2014 went under the hammer on Thursday, April 27. <\/p>\n

It sparked a bidding war until it sold for roughly $170,000 in U.S. dollars \u2014 quite a bit more than original estimates.<\/p>\n

The buyer has not been named so far.<\/p>\n

That individual also has not revealed what he or she plans to do with the property, which includes the building plus half an acre of surrounding land, said SWNS.<\/p>\n

Photos show the old building surrounded by overgrown shrubs and weeds \u2014 while inside, the rooms can be seen piled high with garbage.<\/p>\n

Additional photographs revealed crumbling walls, stained tiles and holes in the ceiling panels, as the news service also reported.<\/p>\n

Auctioneer Helen Bingley told SWNS, “It’s going to make an amazing project<\/a> for someone and has huge potential.”<\/p>\n

She added, “There is quite a market for historical buildings<\/a> of this nature that people are interested in staying in overnight.”<\/p>\n

Bingley noted, “Other unusual buildings we have had for sale in the past include an observatory, water tower, a former army barracks and windmill \u2014 [and] all have proved to be attention-grabbers at auction.”<\/p>\n
