Bath overflow which is flush with bath wall

If wanting to be able to sit at the sink end of a bath (the taps would be positioned at the other end), an overflow with a pop-up plug (so no chain) would be required, and also the overflow on the wall of the bath would have to be as flush with the bath wall as possible.
Would anyone be able to suggest a pop-up plug bath overflow where the overflow is flush with the bath wall? Usually they sit out a bit.
Thanks!

You already started a thread around this on Saturday and didn't reply to the comments there?
The bath will look like it is, positioned the wrong way round. What is wrong with a bath with a different waste/overflow position instead of trying to move just the important ergonomic and aesthetic stuff?
The traditional waste end of a bath is vertical. You'll never sit against it even if you do have a flush overflow because it would be exceptionally uncomfortable and ergonomically incorrect.
Please seek help to the actual problem, not help with silly solutions. I do this for a living and it just isn't necessary. There will be a proper solution.
On the face of it, you just turn the bath as well as the taps.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Well, it had been a slightly different question I had asked in relation to whether there might be issues in relation to the flow of water if taps were positioned at the opposite end.
I did respond to the posts, though I hadn't realised there had been more posts since I responded to it.Doozergirl wrote: »

Yes, I had wondered about that too.0 -

So tell us what the actual problem is?
You really want to put the taps at the other end of the bath? For what purpose? A shower?
What is stopping you from having a regular bath waste at that end as well as the taps?Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
