A slim console for the spots that never had storage. Three drawers hide keys, mail and remotes, and the open lower shelf holds a basket or a stack of books. At 13 inches deep it fits behind a sofa or along a hallway where bulkier pieces will not.
Slim console table with three drawers and a bottom shelf for narrow entryways and living rooms
- Limited floor space in narrow entryways and hallways
- Clutter from keys, remotes and small items on surfaces
- Need for storage plus display in a small footprint
Keep Keys, Mail and Clutter Out of Sight in a Slim Frame
Before: keys, mail and remotes crowd every surface of a narrow hallway. After: three drawers and an open shelf hold it all in a 13-inch footprint.
Storage and display in one slim frame
- Three drawers hide the clutter
Two small drawers sit above one wide drawer. Keys and remotes go in the top pair, mail and chargers go in the lower one, and the surface stays bare. The drawer interior measures about 9 in wide, 8.4 in deep and 4 in tall, enough for a stack of envelopes and a handful of keys. If you want the same spot for a basket or a tray, storage baskets rattan fit the lower shelf well.
- An open shelf for display
The bottom shelf sits about 5.5 in off the floor, which leaves room for a woven basket, a stack of books or a plant pot. It keeps the lower half of the table useful without adding a second drawer that eats into the depth.
- Turned legs and black knobs
Raised panel drawer fronts, turned legs and matching black round knobs give the piece its finished look. The grey wash sits in layers, so the wood reads weathered rather than flat, and the black hardware ties it together.
Keep the grey wash looking fresh
- Dust with a dry cloth
A dry or lightly dampened soft cloth handles everyday dust.
- Wipe dry at once
Dry the surface right away if anything spills, so the layered wash does not lift.
- Keep away from heat
Set it a short distance from heaters and out of direct sun to protect the finish and the wood.

Questions and answers
Yes, if the wall has about 13 inches of clear depth. The table is 23.7 in wide and 31.1 in tall, so measure the wall length before you buy. Bulkier consoles usually run 16 inches or more in depth, which is where most narrow entries run out of room.
The top, drawers and shelf are finished in a layered grey wash over wood, with matte texture and black knobs. Dust it with a dry or lightly dampened soft cloth and wipe dry right away. Keep wet cloths and harsh cleaners off the finish, and keep the table away from heat and direct sun.
Each drawer interior is about 9 in wide, 8.4 in deep and 4 in tall. That fits keys, mail, remotes, chargers and a few school papers or envelopes. Load the drawers gradually after you have checked that they run smoothly.
A standard console usually takes up more floor depth, so it crowds a hallway or sits awkwardly behind a sofa. This table gives you three drawers and a shelf at 13 inches deep, which is the difference between storage that fits and a piece you cannot place. If you want a larger surface for the living room, a farmhouse sofa table with more depth is the better pick.
