Marlborough is where Sweet Home Furniture opened its first showroom. The company began in 1996 selling orthopedic mattresses imported from Brazil door to door, then opened a store in Marlborough, and later moved to a bigger space in Framingham. Today our closest showroom to Marlborough is at 145 Concord St, Framingham. For Marlborough shoppers, it is a short drive back to the same family business.

From Marlborough to our Framingham furniture store

Most Marlborough shoppers take Route 20 east, or Route 85 south to Route 9 east through Southborough into Framingham. If you are near I-495 or the Solomon Pond Mall, the Route 9 side is often simpler. It is usually about 20 to 30 minutes. We are open Monday to Saturday, 10 am to 8 pm, and open 7 days. Check the Framingham store page for Sunday hours and directions.

Still speaking your language

Marlborough has a large Brazilian and Latino community, and that is part of how we started. Our team speaks English, Portuguese and Spanish, so you can ask about sizes, fabrics, financing and delivery in the language you are most comfortable with. You can also send photos and measurements on WhatsApp at (508) 239-0502 before you visit.

Furniture that fits Marlborough homes

Older homes near downtown and Main Street

Homes near downtown Marlborough are often older, with smaller rooms, steep stairs and doorways around 30 to 32 inches. Measure the tightest door and stair turn before you shop.

  • A loveseat (often about 58 to 66 inches wide) plus an accent chair fits a small front room better than a long sofa.
  • A modular sectional comes in pieces, so it can go up narrow stairs to a second-floor apartment.
  • Round tables around 42 to 48 inches seat four in an eat-in kitchen without blocking the walkway.

Condos and townhomes near I-495 and Route 20

Newer condo and townhome communities around the highways usually have an open living and dining space. Use the sofa to define the living area and leave about 30 to 36 inches for walkways. A sleeper sofa turns the office or den into a guest room, and a TV stand with closed storage keeps the open floor plan tidy.

Family homes near Lake Williams and Fort Meadow

Colonials and larger single-family homes in the neighborhoods around Lake Williams and Fort Meadow Reservoir have room for bigger pieces. That is where a full bedroom set with a king bed (about 76 by 80 inches), a dining set with an extension leaf, or a reclining sectional in the family room makes sense. Summer on the lake also means patio time, so take a look at our outdoor furniture.

Mattresses: where it all started

Before you shop, know your size. A twin is about 38 by 75 inches, a full about 54 by 75, a queen about 60 by 80 and a king about 76 by 80. In a smaller downtown bedroom, a queen usually leaves room for two nightstands; a king may not.

We started out selling mattresses, and we still think a mattress is something you should try, not guess. Lie down on your side and your back for a few minutes on each one. Browse mattresses and mattresses with bases online, then test the short list in Framingham.
