I think what you are seeing there is a single lever faucet but the lever is the one on the right. There is no lever with the spout -- that's the drain lever. The soap is on the left. That arrangement would work with your 3 holes, I think better than 2 dispensers.

Yep, you're correct - I've seen that setup many times, it's not bad but it makes it somewhat awkward to use the faucet with the opposite hand. I agree that two soap dispensers wouldn't look good or be intuitive - if I did it, I'd use a smaller one for the lotion to make it obvious which one is the soap. But I'd rather find another use for the third hole, maybe a water sprayer (though I don't think it's all that necessary in a bathroom sink). I could just put a cover plate over it, which I see a lot in kitchens, but it wouldn't look good on dark granite. I don't need an air gap. Anything else I'm not thinking of? A pop-up lever for the drain maybe?

Filtered water? Built in tissue dispenser (box attached to underside)?

Find a cylinder to fit the hole and make it a toothbrush holder or makeup brush or other tool/implement holder. I like the vase idea too. Tissues sound like they could get wet that close to the faucet and sink. Look around your sink and think about the things you use there that might work. If it is mainly for you, lotion could work, but if it is a bath guests use, I wouldn't go that route.

I really think anything but a soap dispenser, spout, or lever/knob wouldn't look right so close to the water spout - tissue, toothbrushes, makeup holder would get wet too easily. I bought a cheap widespread faucet from a big box store because I need something now, but may change it out at a later time if I think of something or see something better.

Old post but I have a similar issue. We bought a house with a bridge faucet (so just two holes in the marble top.) The faucet is now leaking and can't be fixed. To replace it, bridge faucets START at $350 and go up from there to the $1000 price range. We also have another sink on the other side of the bathroom, so if you replace one that will be roughly $400-$700, we probably should replace the other. The second option is to drill a third hole, for a standard wide spread set up. But for a third and budget option, I was looking at some single hole faucets, and putting a soap dispenser on the second hole. I am assuming you would put the water faucet on the left hole, and soap on the right (that is what comes to mind for a right handed person) but I am not sure. This is a home we will move from in about 3 years give or take. Trying to think budget, aesthetics, and function. And would a home buyer think "what the heck?" or say "awesome." You cannot see the other vanity area as the shower and toilet area are in the middle of the bathroom, so I am thinking I can have one faucet on one, and another set up on the other, as long as they are in the same bronze family and similar style (these have an old vintage look to them.) Thoughts?

I have a pretty dedicated skincare routine and wash my face 2x daily at my bathroom sink; I’ve always wanted a little hand held sprayer to make my face washing routine easier and quicker! I intentionally bought a 3 hole (widespread) sink, put a single hole center set faucet in the middle and a soap dispenser on one side and a pretty little sprayer on the other! Love it! This is the cute little sprayer I bought: Kitchen Side Sprayer Oil Rubbed Bronze, Kitchen Sink Sprayer Head Replacement, Kitchen Sink Faucet Sprayer Hose, Kitchen Sprayer Head Replacement, Kitchen Sink Spray Hose and Holder https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08F7QCV2V/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_VDCT4G5AT75YMPJ49VFK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
