I don't have pictures of our ancient MB, but I noticed that yours seems to be close to your neighbors. I am a fanatic about privacy, so I had wooden blinds installed on the large window in our MB. They've been up for 15 years and when we remodel later this year, we'll have new blinds. Am very satisfied with blinds, as they give almost total light control and can be adjusted for any privacy condition that one needs. If I were putting blinds above your tub, I'd add a valance or scarf or tie-back curtains to soften the look. If you're thinking about curtains or other fabric treatments, you might have a look at countrycurtains dot com. They have a great selection of looks and their prices are very, very reasonable (and their customer service is excellent). At the very least you'll be able to see lots of window treatments, from contemporary to ultra-feminine. Could I ask you about your shower? We're also probably going to install a drop-in. Where did you get yours, and what are its dimensions, height and width?

Vinyl certainly will come in at a better price point but may not meet the aesthtic that you are looking for. If that is the rationale for the move from vinyl, the question becomes is what is the other than vinyl look worth to you and how much of a premium can you stomach for it. The Marvin Integrity (wood - ultrex combo) is a nice looking combo and usually comes in that price range between nice wood and good vinyl. The wood interior is nice and it is a well regarded window by most who have used it. They did have some painting issues at one point, but that seems to be confined to a specific window of time. If you search for lkbum (poster on here), he had some wonderful pictures of an absolutely stunning waterfront build. I am still waiting to inspect the product when I go there this summer to vacation....ha!! I think you would be well served to look at that as well as maybe the Andersen 200 series to get a price comparison and see if you are willing to take the budget to that level. I agree with the past observations that the JeldWen is not preferable over those two options that I mentioned above. In vinyl, I would love to see something from Soft-Lite (Imperial LS), Sunrise, Okna, or Kensington Quantum 2. Those are all solidly built vinyl units that can be ordered in a new construction format. We provide a handful of custom builders around here with the Okna product from time to time for new builds or additions.

We had a similar situation. Tore down carport and added garage. It left a window from the kitchen to garage. We are in the mountains and the view is everything. So I had the garage built with a wall of windows across from the kitchen, placed at a height so that from the table our view was unobstructed to the mountains. I finished the inside of the garage with built-ins, fully painted, trim, etc. It is kept clean and we now have our unobstructed view of the ridgeline, a garage (that adds insulation qualities from the cold, a "play room" for us in the winter). Our garage floor is actually 4' lower than the house floor and so the view through the windows is all we really see from the kitchen. But ours is not over the sink.

I would place them as close to each other as possible. I would do only one stick of trim between the windows, so it's 4" and not 8" of trim (4" trim on one window + 4" trim on other window). If that makes sense? So, give the illusion they are mulled. Then 4" trim around the entire unit of windows.
