We did a 100% gut/rehab on a 1950's house in 2018 and converted it to a duplex, turned out beautiful, salvaged the original wood floors in parts of the house, put good LVP in the rest, simple plastic mini blinds on every window.

Go with all wood if you can on dining tables and chairs etc.

Granite or Quartz on all counter tops including bathrooms.. our up stairs is 9 foot.. and our single levels are 10 foot to 14 foot which NO other builder does in a subdivision type build only custom homes over 1 mil would have that.. flooring is engineered hard wood.. custom cabinets with soft close on all doors in the house..

Let those guys hold out for Jeff Bezos types that want to throw massive chunks of $ at things like cabins in the woods. 

Very nice people there in that neck of the woods.

The smart play would be to build a two story wood frame structure on top of piers or concrete block in most cases. 35 feet is a pretty typical height limit in most neighborhoods, so depending on elevation you SHOULD be able to build two stories on top of the elevated foundation.

I would like to install all wood cabinets as this house will hopefully sell in the low $200K's after renovation.

It's basically a 4x4 that goes all around, and they must have poured the concrete into it, but left the wood.
