[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it isn't hardwood, you will likely be able to put hardwoods in pretty easily. A good floor company can match the new wood to the old wood really well. No one would know that they weren't original. I'm the PP who said it wouldn't likely be hardwood, but I am not an expert in old homes. I just know that with most of the houses I have helped renovate, the kitchen floor tends to be a subfloor made up of wood -- but not the kind of hardwood that you would find in the rest of the house. I have mostly had experience in pretty modest homes, though. So perhaps if the house you are buying was considered more "high end", it may have hardwoods underneath.[/quote] This was our experience with our 1940s house- there WAS wood underneath that essentially flowed into the next room (which was hardwood) but it was definitely more of a subfloor and had been under layers of linoleum and tile.[/quote]
