There are plenty of online DIY flat pack murphy beds with shelves that you can get. we recently just got a standard (no shelf) queen size murphy bed DIY flatpack for $2600.

I really like the pic that LesleyH posted. The wooden rail will be 'warmer' to the touch too, show less dirt and tie is with the stairs beautifully.....I thin it will 'ground' the whole look because, if I remember rightly, the stairs and front door are the only wooden features and the rest is a lot of very modern light grey/white/shiny features. I think another touch of warmth in the wood will be beautiful.

What a shame it could save you a lot of money, are they cheap floating or timber. We had an old federation house which had beautiful old floors with a bit of worm and patching but came up to a lovely finish with a lot of character. If you go for a new floor, I'd go light for a Scandi look to work with your furniture if that's your stuff in the photos

I’ve received different and conflicting advice. All of which seems valid. Lay first cause you may want to change kitchen layout. Guys....I have had my existing kitchen 20 years and it was here when we arrived. Add another 15 years. I’m in my 50’s...highly unlikely I will be changing layout. I’m choosing floating boards because I wanted to soften the otherwise very modern kitchen that I’m getting. Floating instead of actual boards because of $$. I don’t want to put tiles or concrete in case of a possible plumbing mishap. Positive vibes. Thanks to all for your advice.
