Go with the flow, get hard floors throughout. Carpets are old fashioned and dusty.
Besides that, once you clean a carpet they are never the same again, they also get dirty quicker and professionals carpet cleaning businesses are very expensive to use.

50oz 80/20 twist pile, on premium underlay (I preferred felt when you used to be able to get it) lasts longer than you will with the right maintenance and;
you do not need to Scotch Gard/stain proof it.
 

Polyprop has come on leaps and bounds in recent years and some are hardly distinguishable now from a Wilton, only problem is oily stain attraction so no good in heavy traffic areas such as receptions and score marks which are beyond restoration.

In a home with young gawd for bids they are brilliant but would still have a medium pile 80/20 over them anytime.

Watch out for shading / pile reversal on really heavy 80/20 - did my living room stairs and landing with 50 oz and it shaded right across the lounge to the kitchen door - had a mate of mine who is also a CC ask me when I was going to clean my own carpets - cheeky b****r.

Great on the stairs though , only cleaned it 3 times in 5 years and still looks like new, no flattening at all. But it does get sebo turbo tooled regularly. Good underlay a must

cleaned an antron stain master carpet that we supplied and fitted about 16 years ago on a hall stairs and landing, the results were spectacular and it really is a good product unfortunately it is so expensive now it cannot compete in the u.k. market.The soil hiding capabilities of the fibre are impressive. It is very often difficult to put the benefits of a product beyond the price with our public. A 5th generation nylon will by far outlast a polypropylene even with the modern day p/p. Years ago we would be cleaning antron fibres on a daily basis these days I see so few of them.

On a slightly morbid note I would always go for a wool or wool rich carpet. If ever you had a fire in your house you will stand a far better chance of gettin out alive on wool than being poisened to death by melting synthetic carpets.

I would go for a 42oz or 45 oz pile no heavier. A two fold yarn not single ply and a 80 wool 10 nylon 10 polyester mix. Fitted on Axfelt combination crumb rubber and felt top.
This would stand you good for at least 15 years if maintained correctly
