Move your kitchen to your dining room.

Yes, there are a lot of people "better than you" at this.: )

Your drawing is insufficient. You need the exact inches, for all the walls, all the windows , the wall space BETWEEN the windows. You need some pictures of the existing space . Come back when you have done a very accurate drawing, on graph paper is fine, 1/4 inch box to a foot and accurate to 1/4" fraction. Add pictures of the current kitchen and the rest.

You need a neat, tidy, bold legible drawing in jpeg format, added below in a comment box.

Hire an architect!

I suspect that you need to be more concerned at this point with actually removing the walls. Your drawing suggests that at least one wall is load bearing. If so, this is a major undertaking requiring special knowledge & skills. Removing a load bearing wall is usually a significant cost. Also, what is inside of these walls; electrical, plumbing, etc. it’s may be smart to hire a structural engineer to assure your plan is doable. Good luck!

IMO maybe before getting too far into the plan you find out the cost for removing walls that at least one looks to be load bearing. Very huge open spaces are wonderful to look at but come with many issues and in your case big ones with thta other open space too. Sound can be a horrible thing to control , whaere does all the electrical go how to light it nicely many things to be considered before this will happen I really dislike kitchens open to LRs so rarely suggest that option to clients If any walls could be moved probably the one between the kitchen and DR but the same issue arise as to where all the appliances go for function first. Yoiu have a small kitchen and DR neither will really get bigger once the walls are gone only visually now you would see all the mess in the kitchen as soon as guests enter the home . First find out what can be done then come back and we can help to design the space . My advice would be no without huge $$$$$

Consider an opening in the wall facing the living room instead of removing two walls.

It is easy to forget that you will have significant flooring costs (either all new flooring or feathering in hardwood and refinishing everthing) if you remove walls - just something to account for in the budget

Thank you all. We will definitely be hiring pros for the job and understand it will not be a cheap project. It is an older home in need of an extensive makeover so things like flooring and such are being replaced anyway. I’ll put together some more detailed drawings and get some pictures of the area.

It's costly but switching the dining room with the kitchen would be an ideal way to open up the space but still keep some walls for cabinets and appliances. It may not matter to you if resale is not an issue, but generally people don't like the kitchen being seen from front door. A

wall helps hide the sometimes messiness of a kitchen is a value.
