How much space needed for faucet?

I'm looking at the Hansgrohe Allegro pulldown faucet for my kitchen. I have approximately 3.5 - 4 inches from the edge of my sink to the wall. According to the faucet specs, it should fit in that space. But I'm concerned about the handle on the side. If the handle has to go back toward the wall to get hot water, it may not work. Actually there is window molding that the handle may hit. I've looked at some faucet pictures in the forum and seen similar style faucets installed in tight looking spaces similar to mine. I'm also open to suggestions for other faucets to look at that might work in the space.

As a side-note, this all came about because I ordered a monster sink from Galaxy Tools. I didn't want a zero-radius because of cleaning issues and when I called them, they had just gotten a few similar sinks but with slight radius corners. The sink is beautiful, but a little bigger than I anticipated. I really like the sink so I don't want to return it for a smaller one if I can make the faucet work.

Thanks!
