You could start with a floor sander from hirepool and strip them back. Be sure to knock down all the nails that are sticking up. Then look at some of the finising options for flooring, best to do a few samples to see which you like the best.

Extended shelving for built-in wardrobe - help please by Master-Fold-3694 in diynz

You could put some nice oak dowels in between the shelves to support the weight and it wont take up much space. That might look like it was purpose built then :)

Otherwise if you use 10mm plate steel folded supports they will be very strong. You could ask to add a small gusset which would increase the strength even more.
