Hi, wow! It’s probably in the family Selenopidae which has about 250 species of “flatties”. They are flat so they can hide in cracks or conceal themselves against flat surfaces. If the spider is still there please post a photo looking straight up at it so we can see its back. If possible, a close-up of its face would help too. It should have six eyes total. The face is between the pedipalps – the bent things that look like short legs. Thank you for posting this photo, it is interesting.
Thank you very much TangledWeb! I added a couple more pictures for you. I found four of them during the weekend inside the house. One of them had a shape of a violin on the top of the head
photo 47489 is the dorsal view of this spider that shows the arrangement of the six eyes that matches family Selenopidae. Thank you Gganot for posting both photos.
