Custom Furniture
Custom Furniture, Built Around You
The ability to fully customize furniture is what sets Cabot House apart. As a fifth-generation family-owned business since 1912, we’ve spent more than a century helping clients create furniture that fits their homes exactly — not approximately.
Choose your fabrics, leathers, finishes, dimensions, and configurations. Adjust a sofa to the inch. Scale a dining table to your room. Build a bed to your exact height and headboard style. Whether you’re furnishing a waterfront home, a city apartment, or a vacation retreat, our designers will guide you through every option at no charge.
Custom is available across both upholstery and case goods, through dedicated programs from the world’s finest furniture makers, including Vanguard, Hancock & Moore, Century, Baker, and Lee. Every program is available at all seven Cabot House showrooms across Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode Island, and Florida.

Upholstery by the Inch
The perfect sofa isn’t found — it’s built. With Upholstery by the Inch, Cabot House clients can adjust seat depth, overall length, arm style, cushion fill, and more, then finish the piece in the fabric or leather of their choice. The result is upholstery made for your room, your comfort, and your life.
Our designers will help you fine-tune every measurement and select from thousands of fabrics and leathers — all at no charge, at any of our seven showrooms.

Case Goods by the Inch
A dining table scaled precisely to your room. A console sized for that one wall. A bookcase built to the ceiling, not near it. Case Goods by the Inch lets you specify the dimensions, wood species, and finish of fine wood furniture — built to order by the finest makers in the industry.
From heirloom-quality traditional pieces to clean-lined modern designs, our in-house designers will
guide you through every specification at any of our seven showrooms.

Custom Beds
The bedroom is the most personal room in the home — and the bed should be the most personal piece in it. Through the Lee custom bed program, Cabot House clients can design a bed to order: choose your headboard shape and height, your size from twin to king, and your upholstery from an extensive library of fabrics and leathers, including performance options.
Lee builds each bed in the USA with environmentally responsible materials and benchmade craftsmanship — a natural fit for clients who want beauty and conscience in equal measure. Our designers can coordinate your custom bed with bedding, window treatments, lighting, and a full bedroom plan through our concierge interior design services.
