I would definitely rip out that entire kitchen/maid’s room area and convert it into one large kitchen with adjacent 1/2 bath and laundry room. Might even open it up to the Dining Room. The Sleeping Porch would make a nice home office.

Once a legitimate blog. Now just a collection of memes 'n menz.
I would find a place for a full “master” bathroom (convert the sleeping porch? Oh, sorry about the office space); definitely expand the kitchen space, forgo the maid’s room. I think (in CA) there can’t be a bathroom opening directly into the kitchen. If there is a wall between the office and kitchen, that layout could make some problems with window spacing. Instead I would be thinking about splitting the maid’s room and bathroom 50% to kitchen 50% to office without a wall between so it could be open for various arrangements. That solves the window problem. Would this place have a useful basement with at least some small windows allowing for a rec room or other bedrooms?
