I would not put fake wood in the same house as the real deal. Why not go with hardwood throughout?

I agree. Wood will work fine in all your spaces and be so much easier on your feet and legs than tile in the kitchen. I've had wood in my kitchens for 45 years with no issues at all. If you don't like the color of your hardwoods, have them refinished and stained a color you prefer. But what you have is gorgeous and classic. Once you place some area rugs, you might even love them.

Ditto no fake next to real and tile is awful on a daily basis. Get the hardwood you like now for those areas and if you mus wait then have the old floors refinished the same color when you can afford it. Make sure the new floor is the same wood as the old one so that it will be easy to match later. I am not sure that I see the kitchen in your drawing but before putting in new flooring make sure you love the kitchen as is if not I would tackle that first. BTW looks like an awesome house.

^^^agree^^^Your existing hardwoods will never be wide plank but can 100% be the color you want.

Here’s a good example of an unfortunate floor situation (ignore colors - just look at concept)

My advice is move in and live with it for awhile, get a minimum of 3 quotes from reputable local flooring contractors. No rush - take your time and do it right.

I have no issues with different flooring in the same house as long as it blends. I have several in my own house - but, it is not "open concept" either.

I think your rooms are separated enough from that front room to have a different flooring, but I still think any wood-look tile is going to look odd looking down the hall from that orange floor. I would do either tile or LVT - in a stone/tile pattern, in your kitchen, hall and laundry. And I would either refinish (ugh) or replace that flooring you have - everywhere else. I would not put tile in the bedrooms - either wood or carpet (my preference is carpet in bedrooms).

Thank you everyone! Really helpful answers! So hardwood would be fine in a kitchen? I love the aesthetic (obviously i was going to try and mimic the look of wood), but functionality is concerning. I would hate to have it warped overtime. Also, can anyone identify what kind of wood I have in the living room? I love the vintage looking size of the plank, its just a bit too orange for my taste, so I will be refinishing at some point. I like the idea of matching it throughout the house.

Since you said you plan to refinish the honey oak later (your other thread) I would wait and install the same kind of flooring throughout. Then have the orange stripped off the living area and all of the flooring stained the same. Live with what you have until then.

" So hardwood would be fine in a kitchen? "

There is an entire (huge) thread on HOUZZ somewhere, on just this topic. Everyone has their own opinions and preferences, so when you ask this question, you open yourself up for a bunch of folks arguing about their own preferences. :-) I would not have wood in a kitchen, but many many people do, and they love it.

Honestly, if you love the wood you have, just not the color...I would suggest that you live with it until you can refinish it all.

The house is 100 years old which means the floors might be the same age. It is entirely possible that the wood has had its day. A wood floor can only be sanded/refinished so many times and then it is finished. It needs to be replaced. Before you decide on 'other' flooring for the house, PLEASE find out if there is enough wood on the EXISTING floor to get another sand/refinish.

To do this, you simply need to find a cross section of the wood. This is often found around floor registers or at the floor's edge (in front of a door, or at a step, some place where you see a transition strip). Find a spot to look at the cross section and then MEASURE the amount of wood sitting ABOVE the tongue. You need a minimum of 3mm of wood to achieve a sand and refinish.

The other thing I would like to point out is the wood is in rough shape...but the finish (just from the glow in the pics) looks OK. I'm wondering if the previous owners did a 'buff and coat' (adding a layer of finish rather than having a full sand and refinish). This might be because of resale or it might be because there isn't enough wood left to achieve a full sand and refinish.

And is this part of the home and addition? If it is, then the age of the floor/addition might be to your advantage.

Well, they build boats out of oak, so with the right finish, oak is fine in a kitchen. If you have a serious leak, any floor you have will likely be ruined, not just wood.

Have a flooring company come in and take a good look at your floor. They will be able to tell you if it can be refinished and also what type of wood flooring it is. Please do not put time and money into a mish mash of different floors. That doesnt look good in any house. If your hardwood is still able to be sanded and restained, then go with the same type of wood and width as the hardwood you already have. Having them all done at one time, would assure, they all will be a perfect match.

Ideally, you'll be able to refinish the existing hardwood and add matching hardwood to halls, bedrooms and kitchen. We had hardwood in the kitchen in our last house and had no issues with it: just mop up the spills. If you don't want hardwood in the kitchen, then go for a non wood look tile - wood tile and real wood do not look good together.

Thank you everyone!! Really great thoughts all around.
