Murphys Furniture

Our Mother, Ruth Murphy, began what is now known as Murphy’s Furniture in the basement of our large old family home in Southeast Hillsboro in 1973. With an investment of $50 to purchase the remains of a garage sale (too good of a buy to pass up) and a lot of elbow grease, she opened Murphy Manor Antiques. It wasn’t long before her “Basement Boutique” took over every room in the house. Her strong customer following caused the business to grow and expand. The business was moved to downtown Main Street in Hillsboro, which became Hillsboro Nostalgia Center. The business then evolved into the first Murphy’s Furniture, which primarily focused on high quality, unfinished wood products at the best possible price. Incredible selection and customer service were always top priority. Murphy’s Furniture continued to evolve to meet the growing needs of a constantly changing Western Washington County community. The store added new product lines, a full-service floor fashion center and a Pittsburg paint department. We tried several locations, until Mom bought property at our current location in Cornelius just west of Hillsboro on Southwest Tualatin Valley Highway. With every change we learned from our experience and listened to our customers. We have maintained affordable quality selection of ready to finish furniture. Our largest line is locally manufactured and family owned Oakcraft Furniture specializing in solid oak and maple bedroom and home office. We carry an excellent selection of unfinished parawood, oak, maple, alder and pine as well as exotics like acacia, mango, and sheesham. We supply Restonic mattresses, a national brand of top quality mattresses sold at a reasonable price. These are locally manufactured by Oregon Mattress, a family-run business of over 50 years. Our expansion of products to meet local needs also includes upholstered furniture, national brands like Best Chair and locally manufactured Stanton.
