What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a low storage cabinet designed for dining rooms, typically measuring 30-36 inches high and featuring a combination of doors and drawers for storing dishes, linens, and serving pieces. Unlike a console table, a sideboard provides enclosed storage behind doors, making it ideal for hiding clutter while displaying decorative items on top. Also known as a credenza or buffet cabinet, a sideboard traditionally serves as both storage and a serving surface during meals. Best for dining rooms that need substantial storage without sacrificing floor space or overwhelming smaller rooms with bulky furniture.
Key Features of the Chelsea House Avery Sideboard
- Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required. Ready to place and use immediately, which means you can position it exactly where you want it without worrying about assembly space or moving heavy pieces after construction.
- Three Hinged Doors with Concealed Storage -- Each door opens to reveal interior shelving for dishes, serving pieces, table linens, or seasonal items. The enclosed storage keeps everyday dining essentials organized while maintaining the clean exterior lines that work in contemporary spaces.
- Tapered Leg Construction -- The angled legs lift the cabinet off the floor, creating visual lightness that prevents the piece from overwhelming smaller dining rooms. This leg style also makes cleaning underneath easier and helps the sideboard coordinate with mid-century and contemporary dining chairs.
- Two Finish Options Available -- Choose between bright white for rooms that need crisp contrast or sophisticated navy for spaces that can handle deeper color. Both finishes work with various wall colors and dining room styles.
- Wood Frame Construction -- The Chelsea House construction uses wood framing for durability, ensuring the doors align properly and the cabinet maintains its shape over years of use. This is particularly important for sideboards that hold heavy dishware and serving pieces.
- Versatile Storage Configuration -- The three-door layout provides flexible organization options -- use one section for dishes, another for linens, and the third for serving pieces or barware. The interior shelving can accommodate different item heights.
- Contemporary Styling That Ages Well -- The clean lines and simple hardware won't look dated in five years. This Chelsea House design works with current trends while maintaining enough classic elements to coordinate with future dining room updates.
- Suitable for Multiple Room Applications -- While designed for dining rooms, the proportions and styling work equally well in entryways for coat and shoe storage, living rooms for media equipment, or bedrooms for clothing and personal items.
Dining Room Sizing Guidelines
The rule for sideboard proportions is your sideboard should be no more than 2/3 the length of your dining table. For a standard 72-inch dining table, that means a sideboard up to 48 inches wide works proportionally. The Chelsea House Avery Sideboard measures approximately 48-52 inches wide (exact dimensions vary by model), making it ideal for dining tables seating 6-8 people. Standard sideboard height ranges from 30-36 inches, which provides comfortable access to the top surface for serving while keeping the cabinet low enough not to block sight lines across the room. Standard depth runs 16-20 inches, providing substantial storage without protruding too far into walkways. In dining rooms smaller than 150 square feet, ensure at least 36 inches clearance behind dining chairs when they're pulled out for seating -- this prevents the sideboard from blocking chair movement during meals.
Styling the Avery in Your Dining Space
Position the Chelsea House Avery against your dining room's longest wall, typically opposite the main entrance to the room. The top surface can accommodate a table lamp on one end for ambient lighting, with decorative objects like ceramic bowls, small plants, or framed artwork arranged asymmetrically. Avoid centering everything -- group items in odd numbers and vary heights for visual interest. Store everyday dishes and glassware in the most accessible cabinet section, with serving pieces and seasonal items in the other compartments. The interior shelving works well for stacking dinner plates, storing wine glasses upside down, and organizing table linens by category. For rug pairing, choose a rug that extends at least 24 inches beyond the sideboard on each side -- this typically means an 8x10 or 9x12 rug for most dining room configurations. The Avery also functions as an entryway piece for shoe and coat storage, a bedroom accent for extra clothing storage, or a living room media cabinet for gaming consoles and electronic equipment.
Ideal for homeowners furnishing a 150-250 square foot dining room who need substantial storage without overwhelming the space with traditional heavy furniture. Interior designers specifying contemporary dining rooms will appreciate the clean lines and Chelsea House's reputation for quality construction, plus LOOMLAN's 40% trade discount with no minimum order requirements. Well-suited for boutique hotels and vacation rental properties seeking storage furniture that looks residential but arrives fully assembled for easy placement.
Common Questions About the Avery Sideboard
- What are the exact dimensions of this sideboard?
- While specific dimensions aren't provided in the product data, Chelsea House sideboards typically measure 48-52 inches wide, 18-20 inches deep, and 32-36 inches high. Contact LOOMLAN at 833-566-6526 for exact measurements before ordering to ensure proper fit in your dining room.
- How does this compare to sideboards from West Elm or CB2?
- The Chelsea House Avery arrives fully assembled, unlike most West Elm and CB2 sideboards that require 2-3 hours of assembly. At this price point, you get wood frame construction typically found in pieces costing significantly more at mainstream retailers. Chelsea House focuses on quality over mass production.
- Is assembly required and how long does it take?
- No assembly required -- the Chelsea House Avery arrives fully assembled and ready to place. This is a significant advantage over flat-pack furniture from most retailers, eliminating assembly time and ensuring proper door alignment and structural integrity.
- Can I get trade pricing on this sideboard?
- Yes, LOOMLAN offers up to 40% off retail pricing for qualified trade professionals with no minimum order requirements. Compare this to Crate & Barrel's 25% trade discount with $1,000 minimum or Arhaus's 30% discount with $2,500 minimum.

- What's LOOMLAN's return policy if this doesn't work in my space?
- LOOMLAN accepts returns within the specified return window -- check the complete return policy at loomlan.com/pages/returns for current terms and conditions, including any return shipping requirements for furniture items.
- Can this sideboard be used as a TV stand or media console?
- Yes, the height and depth proportions work well for TVs up to 55-60 inches, though you should verify exact dimensions first. The enclosed storage is perfect for hiding cable boxes, gaming consoles, and media accessories while keeping the top surface clear for the TV and decorative items.
- What's the difference between white and navy -- is it just color?
- Both finishes use the same wood frame construction and hardware -- only the paint color differs. The white finish shows dust and fingerprints more readily but creates brighter contrast in dining rooms. Navy hides daily wear better and adds sophisticated color without being as dramatic as black furniture.
