2 sinks in only 48"? You and your SO must be on the skinny side, or this
must be a kids bath.

The big-box places only carry the stuff that lots of people want. As soon as
you want something unusual, they say 'special order' or shrug. A local
custom kitchen store can make or get you whatever you want. If all you want
is formica, it is trivial. If you want solid-surface with molded-on
undermount sinks, you are talking more money. The vanity itself, if they
do not have it that size, they can fake easily enough with standard doors, if
you do not mind the vertical rails on the face frame being a little wide.
With 2 sinks in that narrow a space, you are probably SOL on drawers, unless
you do not care about how hard the pipes are to get to.

Personally, for that width, I would use one big sink- I hate how small basins
splash. And with 2 basins, there is almost no usable counter space, so you
are almost as bad off as 2 wall-hung sinks would be.
