Help me remodel my tenant's kitchen!

After some bad luck with our tenant in this One bedroom, One bath apartment -- we've decided to update much of the house before looking for a new tenant (with the intention to find a better quality tenant). 

The kitchen is a very small room - 10x9 - with the refrigerator and stove currently on the far wall with the clock - that door is the back entrance, the sink and one side cabinet on the left wall, and a relatively small walk-in pantry behind that radiator. 

Should I try to move the appliances to make a better fit? Or just put in new cabinets and flooring and hope that does it?

Replied

Out of pure curiosity, wouldn't having the stove and the refrigerator side by side be energy inefficient? One is designed to heat, and the other to cool.

If it were me, I would rearrange, if you can do so without major rewiring or replumbing costs.
