If you do a sink, be careful to leave plenty of space around it...I sat at a Waffle House counter close to a sink once, and soapy dishwater got splashed onto my food!

Most people are not washing dishes while people are actively eating at the counter. The problems with proximity to water with island seating is blown out of proportion.
Back to back seating shoudl have 5' minimum. If you have an adjacent dining room that seats 16 you need to decide what's more important to you. You have 3 different spots for meal seating but not enough space for all of them. If you want all 3, give each the required space.

You'll get more and better advice if you provide the entire plan for this floor in order to see adjacent spaces and provide context for the kitchen.
You have a 5 foot and 4 1/2 foot width hall? moving the L shape interior wall back and over can give you more space if thats what you mean by reference to partition walls . he wantsmore seating , so see what you can do w regards budget and scope.
