When Hampton Roads households need a roomy queen bed to stretch out on but have limited floor space, Roberts Furniture & Mattress has a classic solution you might not have thought of. Murphy beds that fold into the wall when not in use are an economical and attractive solution for many homes. They’re not just in the movies. They could be JUST what you’re looking for!
Kinds of Murphy Beds
Bi-Fold: Perpendicular to the wall when open, these
Murphy beds swing up into specially made cabinets to stow the mattress in the
morning. Just slide the doors out of the way and up goes the bed. Push the
doors shut, securing the mattress for the day or until you next need it, and
voila! It’s as if a bed was never there! Mattresses can be up to 11 inches
thick and still work on a bi-fold Murphy bed.
Flip-Up Desk Beds:
Imagine a home office or study nook and bed rolled into one. That’s the beauty
and economy of space that a flip-up desk Murphy bed affords you. These
mattresses unfold parallel to the wall, leaving an optional desktop you can use
during the day. Many flip-up Murphy beds also feature shelves.
Murphy Bunk Beds: Your
littlest roomies might enjoy the adventure of sharing a Murphy bunk bed, twin
or full hideaway beds! Like the flip-top desk beds, these can run parallel to
the wall, lengthwise, or like other bunks be freestanding, just folding up to
stay out of the way during the day.
Library Murphy Beds:
These folding beds are like the bi-fold Murphy beds only the sliding doors have
bookcases in them, a perfect hide-a-bed for your home office or study, or when
you have surprise overnight guests.
Why a Murphy Bed
Might Be for You
Famously, Murphy beds free up your floor space. When it’s
not in use, simply stow it by folding it into the wall, into its case. It also
empowers you to make your bedroom multipurpose as an office or even workout
space in the daytime! If you put your Murphy bed in a guest room, you’ve got
that much more storage space when you don’t have company staying overnight.
