Anyway, big pantries on the main floor are cool, and a good idea, especially
if the only other option for storing some food is in the basement, which may
not be the best environment.

I don't believe in doing things for "the next owner" . Whose house is it
anyway? It's kind of like putting seat covers on nice velour seats in a
car, who are we saving them for??? I say if a pantry is what YOU need,
then by all means go for it.

My wife came up with a suggestion about our home which I like. However,
I would like some input concerning value of our home. We have a 1700sq
ft home with two full baths and one 1/2 bath that is literally 3 steps
from our open kitchen - just across the hall. Our kitchen is fairly
small and has limited space so my wife suggested we convert the half
bath into a pantry. In terms of flow in the kitchen, it's perfect. My
question: would this lower the value of our home?

We would likely just cap all lines so that a new owner could convert
the bath back if they wanted it.
