Thats a reclaimed heart pine floor. Its also face nailed which is a very nice touch. The face nails can be either real or just for aesthetics. Floors like this are typically planned and crafted one at a time by a company that specializes in Reclaimed flooring products. If you want to discuss your project we would be happy to help you. We service Houzz visitors all across North America and Canada. joel@eutree.com

Those look like ~9" boards, with a lot of character, and a real footworn patina. This is the kind of floor that develops naturally in a home over many decades, but you can achieve something close to this look by purchasing a toned or skip-planed reclaimed flooring. We mill a skip-planed Heart Pine flooring that is about as close as you're likely to get. The color improves tremendously over time with exposure to direct sunlight.

It's a great look!

what type of finish in on that floor?

You could emulate that look with a darker stain. Much of the color comes from a natural patina. Reclaimed heart pine will often have that color as well. joel@oakandbroad.com

Sorry I missed this! It is a tung oil finish on the floor. The boards were installed by my husband, reclaimed from Vintage Legacy in Coburg, Ontario.
