Gorgeous factory showroom...

Stuart's Fine Furniture:

  
A view of a section of Stuart's Factory Showroom

To enter Stuarts Showroom, drive in until you can see the entrance on the south side of the building to your right.  You will see a small porch over the door to the building.

See Modesto Bee story of August 29, 2005  

The Modesto area is pretty lucky to have a high quality furniture factory in its midst. This area is even luckier in that the factory has a showroom open to the public with factory pricing. These prices are only available to local residents as Stuart’s has franchised dealers in most areas of the state, including some nearby communities, and has many dealers across the nation.
If you are nearby, but not in Stanislaus County, you might want to call the showroom first to see if you qualify to purchase from the factory showroom — 209-537-7449.

  The showroom was opened on an informal basis in 2000 Originally the showroom took up only the first section of one of the factory buildings facing Railroad Avenue across freeway 99 from downtown Ceres. The showroom is located next to the Pine Street overpass.  Last year, the showroom was doubled in size with a new section that features wood paneling, separate bedroom vignettes, a two story fireplace and a second floor display area. This new section is unique in that it is finished like a custom home with chandeliers and other features. You might almost imagine that you’ve stepped back to a country mansion built around 1900.  Currently the front section of the showroom is undergoing remodeling, however the showroom is still open and ready to serve you.

    A major feature of the showroom is the massive two story rock fireplace which helps show off large seating groups. Most of the décor fits the craftsmen period of furniture that Stuart’s builds as well as the other fine furniture makers featured.
    The factory showroom also features unique accessories personally selected by the owners, David and Linda Neilson.  Their appreciation for fine and unique items is evident in the choices they offer.
    Full color ads run regularly in The Modesto Bee and there is a factory website where their own furniture is featured. However the factory showroom also features a number of major brands, such as Canadel dining furniture, and Elran Motion Furniture.

     Stuart’s line of furniture features a large variety of Home and Office Computer Desks, back desks, bookcases, file cabinets and associated pieces.
    They feature an extensive line of bedroom suites with all the varied pieces you would need including cabinets for the latest plasma TV’s.  They also have platform beds in some styles as well as bookcase headboards with beveled mirrored backs.

An extensively varied line of Home Entertainment systems is a large part of Stuart’s line.  The styles are designed to be variable for different sized TV’s and plasma units.  There are many accessory variations allowing for storage of videos, CD’s and DVD’s and other video and audio equipment.
Stuart’s Furniture, which is built next to the showroom, is crafted in your choice of high quality oak, quarter sawn oak, cherry, maple, ash and alder and assembled in the time honored method of post and beam construction.  There is no particle board used.  It is handcrafted quality. There are over a dozen different finishes available depending on your choice of wood.

They also use only high quality hardware such as ball bearing full extension glide drawers. The drawers feature English dovetail assembly.  Cedar lined drawers are featured or are available on certain pieces.  They offer a number of styles of decorative hardware as well.

There slogan is: “Expect to see furniture built your way.”  Customization or sizing may be available on certain pieces where feasible.
