I have a new build and like any new build you want to customize spaces and get away from the builder grade faucets and  accessories. My guest restroom sink isn’t widespread however I could not find anything I liked that was centerset and I thought I’d give this a try anyways. Happy to say this set fit fine and yes they are close together but not terrible at all and it’s the look I was going for. Very happy with my purchase and I’m glad I took a chance with this faucet. Still working on this guest restroom but it’s coming together!
