LYNNWOOD — Josh Underhill’s Family Furniture is going out of business after providing Lynnwood and surrounding communities with quality furniture for 80 years. The final liquidation sale opens to the public March 20.
Josh Underhill’s Family Furniture traces its roots to 1946 when Frank Underhill began selling furniture in downtown Seattle. The original business, Underhill’s Unfinished Furniture, was eventually sold and cleared as part of redevelopment tied to the 1962 World’s Fair. Following this transition, leadership passed to Frank’s son, Tom, who restarted the business as Underhill’s Fine Wood Furniture and opened multiple locations across the Seattle area.
In 2009, Tom’s son Josh took over the family business and consolidated operations into a single location in Lynnwood. There, he expanded the store’s offerings to include full-home furnishings and renamed the store Josh Underhill’s Family Furniture. The company’s 80-year retail legacy will now come to a close due to changing economic conditions.
“We are incredibly grateful to the community for supporting our family for 80 years,” said Josh. “It has been an honor to furnish homes across the region and to serve second- and third-generations of customers.”…
