We wanted the same look because we have oak flooring throughout the rest of our house and had carpeted stairs too. What we ended up doing was buying an inexpensive table saw and two looong tread boards. We measured them out ourselves and then conditioned, stained and finished w/ poly. They look great and we didn't end up with extra steep stairs (cost or height.)
We decided to tile the front of the stair case w/ ceramic tile - the same as around our fireplace to tie the house together.
Took longer but we have a much richer look for a price that didn't break the bank like purchasing new risers/treads.
