Washing machine is put in kitchen because it's fitting under the counter, not that it belongs there. Not your kitchen to smell like laundry and your laundry like food. If possible there should be a room for it with all the drying system and stuff, which in small homes could be placed in living room and even in bedroom.
Bathroom is an option if there is a space for it, like a corner just for the laundry, not to be on your way when you are taking shower.
