A Murphy bed, also known as a wall bed or pull-down bed, is a space-saving furniture solution that is designed to be vertically stored against a wall or inside a cabinet when not in use. The primary functionality of a Murphy bed is to provide a comfortable sleeping area while maximizing floor space in a room, making it particularly useful in small living spaces such as studio apartments, guest rooms, or home offices.

This LEED certified cottage is smartly filled with all the goods a custom lakeshore home should have and all the extras this family desired.
