We're not 100% sure, but believe the internal door is oak.

Hello Emma, Weathered Oak would work beautifully with your flooring to create a light airy aesthetic. Layering shades of similar colours create an interior with depth and interest. Textured materials will also help to enliven the space beautifully.. Perhaps as you have french doors linking two rooms, decorate the two rooms as one so they appear to be connected but perhaps offer dining and living room functions. Painting the french doors a lovely chalky charcoal with glass and brass door knobs makes a very beautiful frame from 1 room to the next. It also offers something visually dramatic... It could be any colour or accent colour you like.. (see below about the accessories in particular soft furnishings like curtains, cushions, throws.. as you could use this as a means to decide on door colour.. Or blend with walls.. ) A linen sofa would be lovely if and when you might consider a change.. Have a look at Loaf.com There are a lot of lovely pieces that would work... I have selected just a few that I think could be ideal for your needs that are compatible with the flooring but offer a minimal scheme that you want.. You can then add to.. Charcoal or darker grey linen cushions (also think curtains or window treatments) Wooden accessories, old silvered mirrors, woven baskets.. white washed charcoals and or grey browns... Stone colours and washed greens like sage mixed with bright mint could be lovely with a darker more vibrant green just to pick out one contrasting colour that would be lovely... Foliage would be nice too with a green element.. Ceramic vases and decorative pieces...... : )) The textured button back of this is rather nice as it offers a contrast to the below seat.. Pudding love seat one of my favourites from this company.. A movable tray table or side table... It has fabulous legs and you could paint the top if you wanted to give it more accent! Gr8 for toys! You could put a seat pad or use as a coffee table.. TV cabinet and storage... Consider wardrobes and or chest of drawers to be functional and aesthetically beautiful pieces for living rooms not just a bedroom.. Something like this could house the tv and can form an integral piece to your decor. Height plays a key role in creating a balanced room..

Yes I was thinking to have it stripped but under the black paint there is plain very light sort wood strips my husband bought himself and carved it oh. it hasn't got that antique look.But I agree with you, if the beams were original wood and darker I would definitely do that. Often I was wondering if I had the wood stained oak would it work?I don't want a fake stuck on effect.Someone wrote in a post on an other website that they painted their beams brown and they looked like chocolate logs. Wish I knew how to make the beams look aged and weathered.May I ask what flooring have you got with.the beams?original floorboards?I was thinking to have rustic stone laid down in the living room but the house is already cold and there isn't lots of draught.

My sister is going to have rich wood effect porcelein tiles in her kitchen. One tile retailer let her take a whole pack home to lay on the floor to help with the decision and it helped to see how it would really look. The retailer was a family member, but who knows, maybe someone could do this for you?

Thank you so much, Oana, also your husband and friend. I am going to trust them and take their advice that liming wax is not the best solution for the bench. Also, my thanks to all of you who tried to guess... I will ask our very knowledgeable painter-decorator what would be the best way to take care of this beauty and let you know. I’ll leave you now with a pic of our deck where I’ve just used some of the other things I found in the barn to “make it pretty” :))
