Tucked into the wooded charm of Concord, the Old Road residence is a refined expression of modern living—where Scandinavian minimalism meets the timeless warmth of New England architecture. Developed by McGovern Development Corporation, this home is anchored by one defining element: premium hardwood floors by RIVA Spain.
At the core of the design lies RIVA Spain’s European White Oak flooring in Cigar tone, part of the acclaimed RIVA Elite collection—a surface that sets the emotional tone for the entire home.

Flowing seamlessly across every space, the wide-plank hardwood floors create a sense of continuity, warmth, and balance. Their low-luster finish softens natural light while enhancing the organic grain, grounding the home’s clean architectural lines with a rich, inviting texture.
From the kitchen’s marble waterfall island and slate blue cabinetry to the bright, glass-lined sunroom, the flooring acts as a unifying layer—bringing cohesion to both intimate and open-plan spaces.

Aligned with Biophilia, the project reflects a growing shift toward natural materials and emotionally driven design—where hardwood floors are not just a surface, but the element that connects the entire home.
