I wanted to do this but ended up moving instead; dining room at front of the house, kitchen in the middle (range cooker in the chimney breast) and then living room overlooking the south facing garden. I found a few precedents online at the time (classic trawl of the modern house, mostly) but all lost to the wind now.
A friend of mine in a swanky place out west (admittedly with a bit more room to play with) went one further with the kitchen at the front, dining in the middle and living at the back. His place is great, but I don't know whether that's the concept or just the effect of having spent so much money fitting it out with shiny things.

Yeah, in our case. Living room at front, dining room is a bit of a hallway and the side return and 1m extension can't really accommodate a proper place to sit. Just wondering if having the kitchen in the middle would be a good option. Would probably involve removing a chimney breast so may be unrealistic.
This is when we bought it, but we have taken out the wall between the front room and middle room.
