Farmhouse Bedroom Benches

Farmhouse bedroom benches are an architectural statement that enhance guest bedrooms and master bedrooms alike. Beyond their stylish form, they can add extra seating space, incorporate storage, and ensure your decorative pillows don’t have to lay on the ground while you sleep. Sounds like something you need in your home? Here are three things you should keep in mind when picking a farmhouse bedroom bench.

First off, a bench at the end of a bed should have approximately 6″ to 8″ of space on either side to create visual balance. Secondly, backless benches tend to be a bedroom favorite as they are less bulky and won’t clash with any footboards. However, if you don’t have a footboard or you’re seeking a bold look, a farmhouse bedroom bench with a back may be up your alley. Lastly, all design rules are meant to be broken!

The curated list below proves that benches with more or less than the recommended room on each side can still look awe-worthy. And there are certainly a few picks that pair a footboard with a bench with a back. Keep scrolling for 40 fabulous farmhouse bedroom bench ideas that follow the design rules, forge their own path, and everything in between!
