New England is a region consisting of the six states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. These States are in the north eastern corner of the United States. New England is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the east, Canada on the north and the State of New York on the west.

New England is filled with rich history, cultural attractions, fascinating cities, scenic villages, and outdoor adventures at every turn. Some consider this area to be the birth place of America and is filled with rich history, cultural attractions, fascinating cities, scenic villages, and outdoor adventures at every turn. Discover white sand beaches, old towns with white painted houses and lighthouses. The brilliant fall foliage in the autumn is well known, and there are expansive lakes, panoramic mountain views, and dockside restaurants with delicious seafood chowder, lobster, and blueberry pie.

New England Lifestyle have designed a beautiful range of white painted furniture to reflect the style of the houses in New England. Our white bedroom furniture consists of two ranges The Manhattan Range is inspired by the clapper board beach houses of New England, and The Maine Range is inspired by the classic simplicity of the shaker style.

The Manhattan Range has three types of bedside table, the Manhattan bedside table, the Manhattan Bedside Cabinet and the Manhattan Bedside with drawers. This gives a choice of bedside table where you can have different tables in different bedrooms but still keeping the same style.

There are three types of Manhattan chest of drawers, the Manhattan Chest of Drawers, the Manhattan Tall Chest and the Manhattan Multi Drawer.  The choice of chest of drawers will depend on the space you have and the amount of storage you require. All the above Manhattan items also come with beautiful solid oak tops.
