Best Space-saving Sofas For Small Homes

Do you have a small space but you’re looking for a new comfortable sofa for the living room? Are you thinking about adding more style and comfort to your home office? Well, you're certainly in the right place! From luxurious recliner sofas to handy sofa beds with storage, our wide range of sofas for small homes can certainly make all the difference for making compact spaces feel more comfortable.

In this guide, we’ll talk about all things small sofa related: we’ll recommend some luxury sofa options for compact rooms, as well as some tips on how to style them in your smaller living room.

2 Seater Sofas

Our wide range of 2 seater sofas make ideal options for solo adults or couples who are living in small spaces. Whether you’re living in a small apartment or you have a small living room in your home, the 2 seater sofa option is a great choice for up to 2 adults to sit comfortably.

The compact design of the 2 seater sofa means that less floor space is used up, giving you plenty of room in your space as well as a comfortable place to sit each day.

One example is the 2 Seater Wendlebury Sofa, that’s available in a wide selection of colours and materials. Lighter colours are great for making smaller spaces feel light and airy, such as the Stone Jumbo Cord or the Plush Velvet Option. Our darker tones are great for making existing small spaces feel even warmer and cosier, with materials such as Ebony, Brick or Charcoal. For those who are feeling adventurous, you might lean towards our brighter shades such as Olive or Granite to brighten up your small living space.

Sofa Beds With Storage

Sofa beds with storage are one of the best space-saving options that can transform small spaces. Their multiple functions allow you to get the most out of your furniture, saving you both space and money!

Thanks to its internal storage, you can store anything from clothes, toys, blankets to electronics inside the lift-up chaise end of the sofa bed. Gone are the days of you cramming everything into your wardrobe or garage - you can easily access your things on a daily basis with the discreet storage bed.

Living in a small apartment or home shouldn't stop you from having friends and family over. The smooth-pullout trundle of the sofa bed makes the conversion so easy - within minutes, your sofa is turned into a cosy bed for guests.

Not everyone has the luxury of a spare bedroom, so these sofa beds are a great solution for those who regularly host weekend stays in their small home. Plus, you don’t have to bother pumping up the blow up bed before your friend or family member stays the night.

Also available in a selection of colours and fabrics, our sofa beds with storage are not only functional in all living spaces, but they look incredibly stylish too. Why not order a fabric sample from us to get a feel for them in person? 

Recliner Sofas & Arm Chairs

Not only are recliner sofas excellent for those who want to find the perfect sitting positions, but they’re also efficient in small spaces. Whether it’s for a conservatory, living room or office space, recliner sofas make a perfect spot to relax and unwind with a cup of tea, without taking up too much space.

When recliner sofas extend, you have somewhere to put your feet up, meaning there’s no need to buy separate furniture such as a footstool. While footstools also make comfortable furniture accessories, a recliner sofa doesn’t take up as much space as they can easily be converted back to their original position. Thanks to their convenient USB ports, you can conveniently charge your phone from the comfort of your sofa without having to reach for messy wires, which is not what you need in a compact space!

Just like the recliner sofas, arm chairs also make convenient and stylish pieces of furniture for compact spaces. Made with a selection of premium fabrics such as plush velvet, linen and jumbo cord, you’re sure to find the perfect cosy arm chair that suits the style of your traditional or modern small space.

The flexibility of these sofas allows you to adapt to the needs of your smaller space, and it makes them particularly useful if you change accommodations often.

Tips For Styling A Sofa for Your Small Living Room

Your sofa in your small living room won’t feel complete without styling the rest of your space to tie everything together. Let’s take a look at some of our other tips on how to make your living room feel larger and more open.

Sofas With Raised Legs

Sofas with raised legs not only look elegant in the living room, but they’re also a useful way to store things underneath it. From smaller items such as shoe boxes, storage baskets and much more, you can neatly tuck away your belongings and create even more floor space. All you need to do is to double check the measurements of the raised legs on the sofa you’re thinking about purchasing to ensure you’ll be able to fit the items you need to store underneath it.

Nested Coffee Tables

Making an incredibly useful space-saving solution, nested coffee tables are a great way to make your living room and sofa feel complete. With various sizes in one set, they all neatly tuck under each other when stored away, to be brought back out again when guests come over. Share tea and biscuits when family and friends come over with this set of nested coffee tables!

Add Mirrors To Your Living Room

Adding mirrors to your living room can be a great way to add lots of light into your small apartment or home. Instantly reflecting more light and making dull areas feel brighter, mirrors can create the illusion that your compact living room is slightly larger and more open.

Add Accent Pillows & Blankets

Add a pop of colour to your sofa to make it stand out in your living room and make it feel cosy with extra blankets. Use contrasting colours to add a touch of personality and don’t be afraid to get creative with different textures in your compact space.

Add Wall-mounted Lighting

Lighting can have a huge impact on how your small living room feels. While small lamps look stylish on coffee tables, you could create even more floor space by installing a wall-mounted light into your living room. Not only does this styling technique free up more space, but it can create a cosy reading nook for your sofa and living room.
