We got some new boards in our dining room (builder fitted them without really discussing it, I would definitely have got reclaimed if I could have).
The grain isn't as interesting as with the older boards and when I was sanding them they went a bit weird and powdery and the sander slipped around a bit so watch out for that.
One of the Polyx oil tints like the Amber might look really nice on them to make them look a bit less new.

That's what I used. The amber one with a coat of clear on top. We painted ourselves out of the front door as we left to visit my parents for Xmas. That was maybe 4 years ago
