Murphy Beds in Alexandria, Virginia

Alexandria was building houses long before anyone said the words guest room, and it shows. The rowhouses of Old Town and the bungalows of Del Ray give you gracious living space and precious little flexibility. A Murphy bed changes that equation: we take one wall and build it into furniture that holds a full mattress, real storage, and a finish that suits a historic home, then the bed disappears until the night you need it.

The construction is what separates our beds from the flat-pack versions. Alexandria clients get cabinet boxes, not wire frames: solid backs, adjustable interior shelving, soft-close drawers, and a counterbalanced lift mechanism rated for nightly use. The mattress is a standard one, yours if you like, and the whole face of the unit is finished furniture. You can see how these builds fit into the bigger catalog on our Alexandria furniture store page.

Why Alexandria Homeowners Choose a Murphy Bed

Guest rooms sit empty roughly ninety percent of the year, and in Alexandria that is an expensive vacancy. A Murphy bed collapses that cost. You keep the hosting, lose the idle room, and gain built-in storage in the same footprint, which is why these systems tend to pay for themselves in usable space almost immediately. About half of these projects uncover a storage problem too, which is where custom closets in Alexandria come in.

Murphy Bed Options Alexandria Clients Choose

Standard equipment on our systems includes adjustable shelving, soft-close hinges and slides, and a counterbalanced mechanism that one adult can operate with a hand. From there Alexandria clients choose finishes from a broad range of wood grains and painted looks, plus options like integrated lighting, fold-down desks, and wardrobe towers. You can see the same options at work one town over in our Murphy beds in Arlington projects.

About Alexandria, Virginia

Alexandria sits on the Potomac just south of Washington, and much of its housing stock has real history behind it. Old Town rowhouses and Del Ray bungalows were not built with modern storage in mind, which is exactly why built-in furniture does so well here. A piece that folds away or uses a wall from floor to ceiling earns its keep in these homes.
