Welcome to the forums. Not being able to see what you see prevents good answers. Can you post a couple of pictures for us? http://www.doityourself.com/forum/el...your-post.html

How did you determine there isn't a subfloor? Can you see thru cracks in the floor? When was the house built? It wasn't uncommon years ago to use T&G planks for the subfloor. Pics would be helpful.

I have seen houses with no subfloor so it's possible. If you want pretty hardwood floors you'll just have to follow the normal steps to finishing a hardwood floor but first you need to determine if your existing floor is good enough. Some people want perfect while others want "patina" or "rustic".
