The Desk Murphy Bed, a Favorite Wallbed for Home Offices

At Wallbeds “n” More, we have the largest selection of murphy bed styles available through any of our murphy bed retail locations and that means we have a lot of choices. Although there is no one favorite style, one of the most versatile and popular styles is our desk bed murphy bed style.

How To Create a Home Office Guest Room

If you work from you, you’ve probably had to turn one of the bedrooms in your house into your home office and specialized work space. For homes that have 4 or 5 or even more bedrooms, this may not feel like you are giving up a bedroom, however, in 3 bedroom or less homes, or in studio apartments or town homes, this loss of a bedroom is huge.

This is where the desk bed is the ideal solution. What excites so many people is that the desk on our murphy desk beds always stays level, meaning that you can keep your computer and paper work on the desk and still lower the bed for a guest to stay.  The desk itself is a regular sized desk and can work as a full desk space. 

If you need more desk space, you can even add a side desk with cabinets to ensure you have the storage space and table space for your work, all in a compact and well designed space saving solution.

The desk measurements of both our Standard Desk Wallbed & Deluxe Desk Wallbed are:

Queen: 84″ wide / 27″ deep
Full: 78″ wide / 27″ deep

Creating A Guest Room from a ‘Spare’ Room

The other common question is, who wants to save one room in their house solely as a guest room that they cannot utilize the space for the other 95% of the year when you don’t have guests visiting? Even if you intend to keep it as a guest room, it often becomes a work room, playroom/video game room, home office, exercise room or even just a storage room when not in use.

Space is limited and any furniture that you put into a spare room should take into account the way the room is used. Why have a spare bed take up 40-50% of a room that is only used a few times a year when you could have a functional desk, cabinets and storage with a bed that folds down on the few times you need it each year?

We understand that you may have a budget to work in and can offer financing (in select stores) to help make a wallbed purchase fit into your monthly budget. To see our styles or to try a murphy bed in person, find your nearest showroom today!
