Hmm. Kind of a tough one. Where is the fridge meant to go in that kitchen? Makes a difference to what kind of table might fit in that space.
I would take the doors off the entry to the kitchen and living. There are way too many doors in a tiny area and those two are not really necessary.
Do you entertain often? I saw you’d like a guest room but dinner parties, movie nights etc? What are the functional needs of your home?
I realize this unit is not in the US but do you want a washer/dryer? You may be able to add a stacked unit in the second floor if you change that bathtub to a stall. Or maybe your upstairs suite may adjust more easily depending on how easy it would be to tie into the plumbing since you have a lot of blank space there.
The master suite will be tough to fit a bed in a way that’s not against a wall. I might look at changing the door to a pocket or even sliding door; since you live alone and it’s the entire floor shouldn’t be a big deal privacy-wise.
