What is it? Seems to grow out of some wooden areas in the room. I've tried peroxide and bleach. Would a steamer help? Sorry in advance for the bad picture quality.

It smells like an unused room, but dampness is there as it's exposed to marine air. Can't detect traces of mold on the porous items like linen, cushions etc, but I'm not too familiar with what to look out for. Any tips?

It's a really weird one. You can try a borax and water solution. Here's a page that seems similar to your problem that might help

I'm starting to think it's embedded inside the wood at the factory, but have no way to verify it. Anyway, thanks for the solution, I'll give it a shot.
