i'd like to get small appliances and more / better storage
Since you have a dishwasher, I would recommend getting a single sink. That would give you 16"-18" more usable cabinets. If you are able to shrink the dishwasher to an apartment size 18" that would give you another 6". You'd gain some space by getting upper cabinet that are all 36" high, except for the one over the sink. I'd make that one 30" high. And the one over the refrigerator which would probably be around 21" high.
In small spaces, uniform height cabinets make a space feel larger AND give you more storage. I would replace the upper cabinets with ones that go to the ceiling. I wouldn't reduce the size of your appliances. If you want a cleaner look on the counters, go with an undermount sink.
Start with your budget. It will limit what you can do. 20K for a "refresher" for a kitchen results in a far different end than 120K for an full upscale kitchen remodel.
