For the back, build it out, square cut the counter, and the thickness of the backsplash will cover what you dont build out.

What is the depth of the shorter (left) wall? Is it deep enough to make that the depth of the counter top, and still get the sink and faucet in? Having that stick out like that is gonna bite you in the arse...IMHO of course

I think so. Bathroom counters seem to be 19" and 22" standard depth so I should be ok, although the granite back splash is very thick.

The corner shouldn't be a problem. The door into the space is nearly in front of the sink, and there's enough depth to the room that one shouldn't catch it in the hip...which would hurt.

Thanks again to everyone, this is great feedback

I can see you are done with rock, and mud.... but you could pad out that left wall, floor to ceiling, which would mirror the other side..... just playing devil's advocate before you order the granite.

carpenters use large (meaning wide) cedar shingles to pad out gaps that go from say 3/8's to zero (if and where applicable) if you can hide it ........that is. Just thought i'd add in.... that additional option

That would be easy enough. My only concern is that it would narrow the entry right in front of the door. I don't mind it being irregular, it actually opens it up a bit visually.
