Forest River Rockwood Mini Lite — Murphy Bed to Twin Beds Conversion
Project type
Interior Conversion, Custom Cabinetry, Twin Bed Installation
Date
Nov 2024
Location
Medford, MN
This Rockwood Mini Lite arrived with a front Murphy bed and sofa. The owner wanted a permanent twin-bed layout with clean storage and a factory-quality finish. We removed the Murphy assembly, prepped the space, fabricated matching platforms with cabinet-grade tops and a left drawer base, added an overhead cabinet and valance with lighting, and set mattresses with proper clearances. The result is an open, comfortable twin-bedroom that looks original and functions better for daily use.
