Cots and beds

Single bed with storage

I would love some recommendations for a single bed with storage underneath that isn't too high.

I am expecting dc3 in September. Currently DD (9) and DS (7) share a bedroom and have bunk beds. DH leaves for work at 6am and cycles 9 miles each way, so I want to keep the baby away from the kids' room and from DH when it's doing the all-night feedandcryathon of which newborns are so fond. We live in a 3 storey house, so the plan is for me to share a room with baby when it's small, and then to move DD to the middle floor, and DS will then move to the top bunk and share with the baby (or toddler as it will be then).

We need a single bed for the middle-floor room with some storage underneath (the room is not very big so we need somewhere to put clothes etc). However, as the baby will initially be in a co-sleeper cot (the Arms Reach co-sleeper), it needs to be no higher (or not much higher) than a normal single bed.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance :)
