If I had to make that small an area work, I would rely heavily on countertop appliances.
Forget a built in burner, takes up too much room.
Get a gas or induction hot plate for use in the summer, and use the black oven in the winter.
Make outlets readily available on the counter. Best place would be the underside of any cabinets, or just the wall.
You can do a lot with one of those combo griddles. Cuisinart makes a cheap one, but you can get nicer ones from others. Breville is one, but I am sure there are others.
Build your knife storage into the counter, a la Alton Brown. Saves space, and makes them always available.
Don't skip the dishwasher. It'll take up valuable storage space, but working in a small kitchen like that will be much more bearable if you don't have to wash dishes by hand.
Make sure you get plenty of prep bowls, and have storage space for them. Mise en place will be very important with a small space, and they will help a lot.
A Magic Bullet type blender is really handy for cooking for 2, and for a lot of tasks that would otherwise take up more counterspace (chopping onions, beating eggs, chopping herbs, etc).
Make the whole countertop out of end grain butcher block (or side grain if you don't want to/can't spring for end grain) so that you don't have to deal with cutting boards at all.
If you don't already, try cooking sous vide. Takes little space, and good for summer cooking as it won't let too much heat into the space.
Have a hood vent for your black stove, and in the summer, put your hot plate there. The vent needs to be the type that goes outside, not the filtering one.
You don't want a small space like that filling with smoke from cooking.
Actually, depending on how you build the kitchen, you might be able to just put the vent in the middle of the room. Have the ceiling slope towards the center a bit.
Don't skip the garbage disposal in the sink - you'll regret it. Also, stick with a single sink instead of the traditional double. You're better off with one normal sized sink than two half sized sinks.
Skip the microwave, and just get a large toaster oven instead, one of the deep ones that can fit a 12" pizza. You can do most everything you can do in a microwave in the toaster over, it just takes a bit longer.
Skip the coffee maker, and get a hot water ketttle with a gooseneck spout like this. Learn to do pourover, get an Aeropress, or a Chemex. Saves you counterspace, and you can use the electric kettle for other cooking things too.
Don't forget about the time he missed a phone call from his manager about some new sort of tabletop grilling device. Hogan didn't answer the call, so his manager said 'no thanks' to the tabletop grilling device company. If Hogan had answered the call, we would not have the George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine.
I got one of those super cheapy Chinese hot dog rollers and it was actually really freakin awesome for the 2 months it lasted me.
Something like this
I have one of these, and while raclette is not so easy to find in central florida, we often use guyere in this contraption. No waiting on everyone else.8 person raclette
Me and my roomie had this last year and we used it to make amazing grilled cheese and ham sandwiches all weekend. It was super fast and very satisfying when we didn't feel like spending money on food or wandering our hungover asses out of our hotel room. Also great for late night when you don't want to pay for the ridiculously over priced pizza :P

Probably too late, but one of the most fun times I have eating with family/friends/whatever is cooking on a racklette grill. We have this one and it's worth every penny.
Any time we have someone new try it out, they love it. We usually get a little seafood, a steak, and maybe chicken cut up, along with veggies and an assortment of cheeses. Then we all sit around and cook and eat. It's a blast.
I've been tempted to buy my own raclette maker and have a party. Machines like this are super popular in Germany.

Raclette style grilled cheese. BTW, a Raclette Grill is a great purchase, I love mine for dinner parties
It's no Krispy Kreme donut, but...I suggest getting a lean mean fat reducing grilling machine i know its not a recipe but itll help cook delicious meat with very little mess and its quick.
Here's a link to the grill on Amazon

I do not put it in the dishwasher. The plates are removable and I hand wash them. The surface non-stick material is easy to clean and seems to be holding up very well to usage. I've had it for almost 3 years. There is also a grease catcher drawer that needs scooped out and washed.
I have found their products to be very reliable and produce consistently good results. You can also buy additional plates to give you grill marks top and bottom or no grill marks at all. I can't remember whether there are waffle plates or not. You can also tilt the base or leave it flat depending on how you want grease to drain.
It's a little more than what you said you were looking to spend, but what about something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016B40XT6/
I believe it gets to 500 degrees
We have a portable butane stove we can put on the dinner table like this. (This is also really handy for picnics and cookouts...or if you like hot pot, or shabu shabu, or fondue...very handy to have around)
And then we have something like this or this to put on the stove. Personally, I'd go to a korean grocery, as they'll probably sell something like this at a cheaper price.
You probably can get away with using a small pan too.
I wouldn't buy bottled marinade. The sauce is really easy to make, and there are plenty of recipes online.
Edit: note also that if you're planning on doing this inside there's going to be a bit of smoke. You may have to open windows! The 'smokeless' pan above isn't as smokeless as one would like.
This is a Philips Infrared grill.

I have 2 more videos. How can I post them here?
I know it's not the same a real grill, but I've been using this grill since I live in an apartment and can't use an outdoor grill. This is pretty damn good for an electric grill and a decent price.

Just bought a smokeless indoor grill, another awesome option for easy and quick keto meals..https://www.amazon.ca/Starfrit-024414-003-0000-Electric-Indoor-Smokeless/dp/B07F33TF8D?psc=1&SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duc12-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B07F33TF8D
I use the Dash Waffle Maker: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06ZZNK58H
My mixture is: 1 egg, 3 tbsp of almond flower, a bit of baking powder, and cheddar cheese. Then I put some cheddar cheese on the bottom of the grill, then I add the mixture, close it, wait for a minute, then open it again and add a bit of cheddar cheese on top. Then close it and wait for a minute, that's it. For the grilled cheese I use a pan, a lil' bit it butter and I crush them with a spatula.
I have an older one of these that works pretty well
Hey, we have done extensive research into some natural non medical remedies for IBS. For more comfort when using the rest room you should check out the squatting toilet stool. It allows you to "Squat" while trying to do your business. A great design and product. Cannot recommend it enough. It also comes in 2 sizes: https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Living-Products-Squatting-SL-9-Stool/dp/B01MR3OOGU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1484091085&sr=8-1&keywords=toilet+squatting+stool
Get a cheap indoor grill like this
dipping sauce is up to you really.
Not sure how I can link to a Sears in store display, but here is the Amazon.ca link:

I bought one of these electric numbers a few weeks back and have been pleasantly surprised with it. I haven't tried anything thicker than burgers yet, but the smoke has been virtually non-existent.
I've had my eye on this one, and have been thinking about getting it:

I like that it doesn't have a grill on the top, since the typical "George Foreman" type grill tends to smash food too much.
I currently have this Sanyo electric grill:
https://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-HPS-SG3-200-Square-Inch-Electric-Barbeque/dp/B00011HH22
It's inexpensive, and relatively easy to clean. It was also voted the top indoor electric grill on a previous episode of America's Test Kitchen. My main gripe though is it's rather large, and it can be a bit tricky emptying out the drip tray without spilling it.
