Tesoro Woods Chateau – French Oak Kenilworth 7-1/2"

Kenilworth gives French oak a weathered, smoky grey-brown finish with the look of reclaimed barn wood. Knots, checks, and a mix of grey and brown across the planks give it an Old World feel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What color is Kenilworth? A weathered grey-brown. Some boards lean cool grey and others warmer brown, which gives the floor a reclaimed, time-worn look.

Is Kenilworth a grey floor or a brown floor? Both. It sits between grey and brown, so it works with warm and cool decor.

Will a rustic grey-brown floor hide wear? Yes. The light wire-brushed texture, the knots, and the mid-dark color all help hide dust, scuffs, and pet traffic better than smooth, pale floors.

Can Kenilworth be installed in a basement? Yes. Chateau is engineered hardwood rated for above- or below-grade installation, and it can be glued down, nailed down, or floated. Follow Tesoro Woods' installation guidelines for subfloor moisture testing and prep.

Authentic French Oak, Built to Last

Every Kenilworth plank has a thick 4mm sawn French oak wear layer on a solid cross-slat core, built in a stable 3-layer engineered format. The thick sawn face looks and feels like solid hardwood, and the cross-slat core resists the cupping and gapping that solid wood can show with seasonal humidity changes. A UV-cured matte finish protects the surface with a low-sheen, natural look.

Healthy, Responsibly Sourced Flooring

Tesoro Woods builds Chateau from 100% PEFC-certified material, with chain of custody documented from forest to jobsite. It is FloorScore and GREENGUARD Gold certified for low emissions, has no added urea formaldehyde, and is Lacey Act and Prop 65 compliant.
