Having two faucets is nice so that each person has their own space. In the space above, the faucets are so close together it defeats that purpose. Do 2 sinks each with its own faucet. guests will appreciate the room.

As a guest, I would really value as much counter space as possible because guest items have no home in a drawer or medicine cabinet.

And wow would those towel bars in front of the sink irritate the hell out of me!

My daughters in law appreciate the counter space for makeup bags, blow dryers, etc. When the grands were babies, it gave the moms room to dry off the babies. Visitors bring a lot of gear and need a place to set things. Rarely do visitors, even husbands and wives, share the bathroom, at least at my house.

We LOVED my MIL's mud room. It had kitchen height cabinets (now they are common) and it ran the lenght of the powder room. One normal sized sink on one end (not centered!!) That left a huge flat space that was perfect for changing diapers!! I have come to almost believe two busy people getting dressed for work use one bathroom simultaneously. (No I don't buy it. DH used the basement bathroom since babies would wake as he prepped for his day, and it continues.) But to imagine a guest bathroom having a need for two sinks/two faucets--no a thing.

Take it easy @Kendrah, stop being such a picky guest... When visiting, you're not planning to move in, are you? lol...

How much stuff do you bring that you would need a counter, drawer space, and why would you get irritated with a towel, being in the wrong place? (You are only a guest :-))

I hope you're not one of those guests who always complain and you can't get rid of, and I mean that in a good way lol.

I’d rather have lighting near a mirror for practical purposes and would also opt for one sink to provide optimal surface space.

Consider a floating vanity, which will make the bathroom feel more spacious.

I have used those long trough sinks in department store restrooms, airport restrooms and other public restrooms. The long sink would take up valuable counterspace in a guest bathroom where the guests need to put their toiletries, contact lenses, towels, etc. Two sinks in a guest bathroom make a wonderful arrangement.

I would prefer counterspace. When my husband and I travel I have 3 different toiletry bags. One with general toiletries and then a bag with my skincare and a bag with my makeup. It is nice to be able to leave these bags on the counter along with tooth brushes and hair brushes. I do not put stuff in hotel drawers nor would I put stuff in drawers if I were a guest at someones home.

I'm a no (or minimal) stuff on counters person, so I would definitely place my toiletry bags in a guest vanity drawer if the space was available. If the host/hostess is also a person that dislikes clutter on counters, they will also appreciate you putting stuff away when not being used.

Long sink with two faucets, I think of: school bathrooms, venue (sports stadiums, concert places) institutions . Troughs with multiple faucets, many with foot controls, some cold water only.

I too tend to associate large sinks with multiple spigots as a public/common area restroom sink more than a home guest sink. And having one big sink instead of two smaller ones takes up a lot of counter space.

Another thing to think on. You say you want to enlarge the windows a little bit. Make sure you plan on how to address your siding/exterior along with the new windows.

Keeping it clean would be an issue. Why I hate flat bottom sinks.

Thanks all for the responses. i tried to respond earlier but it kept timing out on me.

Anyway, widening the windows means I will have 4 feet of wall space between the windows, so I’m squeezing 2 sinks in that 4foot gap in order to have the sinks under the mirror. I have seen sinks under windows with mirrors to the side but I think that would be annoying. I think I can fit 2 18 in sinks in the center and have about a 12 inch drawer bank in between, plus 24 inch drawer banks on either side.

I’m planning on one of those mirrors with the built in lighting.

You could: Put one window in the middle and two sinks with mirrored medicine cabinets flanking it.

Have you investigated the cost involved with widening the windows? Siding pulled back, reframing the wall (twice), new headers, etc. Not super expensive siding and structure type dependent but not necessarily cheap and easy either.

No to a trough sink in that configuration. Best would be what apple pie suggested, but if you don’t want to move or add windows, then one good-sized sink is preferable.

Making the windows bigger, while not the easiest thing, is doable. Closing the spaces up and doing a center window would be a nightmare according to my contractor, so I’m going with 2 slightly bigger windows.

Just do one sink. People rarely use both sinks at one time, especially guests who are not on a schedule.

Small sinks are annoying so one good-sized one as suggested earlier.

Just chiming in with everyone else--one sink, maximal counterspace. Counter space is gold.

Sorry but every time I see the title of this post, I think of something like this, only with two faucets:
