This is a perfect use case for Ikea patio tiles.

Agreed, however this will be the fireplace wall, so the bottom half will be (black) tiles -- so those are not as easily changed as paint.

We planned to put wood look tile throughout the bottom floor.

We have been installing new subfloors and vinyl tile one room at a time and tenant has to move all their stuff from each room each time, and then back after install complete. 

Things like quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, in-unit laundry, new tile, new outlets & switches, doors, trim, etc.
