Murphy Beds in Kensington, Maryland

The Kensington cape is a lovely, stubborn thing: charming downstairs, sloped and awkward upstairs. We treat those roofline rooms as a design specialty. Murphy beds sized to sit under the slope, cabinetry that follows the ceiling line, and storage tucked into the knee walls turn the most awkward room in the house into the one everyone wants.

Our lift mechanisms are rated for daily cycling, not occasional use, so a Kensington home office can convert every single night if that is what the household needs. Around the bed we fit whatever the room calls for: wardrobes, open shelving, a fold-out desk, or a full media wall. You can see how these builds fit into the bigger catalog on our Kensington furniture store page.

What a Murphy Bed Does for a Kensington Home

Space, mostly, but also calm. A room with a clear floor and closed cabinetry reads tidy even on a busy week, and that matters in Kensington homes where one room has to serve the whole household. The bed being invisible until needed is the feature people say they underestimated the most. About half of these projects uncover a storage problem too, which is where custom closets in Kensington come in.

Murphy Bed Finishes and Storage Options

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 Kensington 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 Chevy Chase projects.

About Kensington, Maryland

Kensington is a small town known for its antique row and its cape cods, and it sits minutes from our Chantilly area service routes through Montgomery County. Capes are wonderful houses with famously awkward upstairs rooms, and turning those slope-ceilinged spaces into working bedrooms and offices is a Kensington specialty of ours.
