Why do builders assume that people want the central heating boiler in
the
kitchen?

I would welcome the idea of an ugly but reliable boiler that could be
fitted
in a cupboard (like a big meter cupboard) on the outside of the house.
Less
hassle when replacement is needed as changes to pipework wouldn't
disturb
the appearance of the room.

Such boiler are available. Come in highly insulated outside cabinets
that
mount on the wall.

Special commercial units.

Nope. Grant do options on most of their oil boilers like this.
