With $15k, which home improvement project would you do for best resale?

You are stupid and should be ignored. The majority of buyers prefer open floorplans.

You are vicious and should go off line

Kitchens and baths sell houses. I don't think $15K is enough for your project, though. Especially if there's a load bearing wall.

Do the closet first. Not very expensive and will make your life easier right away. I like the idea of the open concept but agree your budget is not enough. Do the floors last - your kids will mess them up during the time you're there. I would do those right before selling instead. Most home improvement projects don't really net you that much in resale. Just keep up with the home maintenance. Paint the house--exterior and interior--if it needs it; otherwise wait until closer to when you plan to sell.
