I am finalizing few things to the building, one of them is outdoor wall faucet for garden hose. I went to local stores, the nice ones are frost proof but they have way too long pipe attached to it, that won't work as it will stick out my interior wall. Only option I see are brass sillcock faucets that don't look and feel good as those frost proof ones.

I looked online I can't find what I want, maybe someone knows the word needed for search that would give better results? Or does anyone know where I can find nicer ones that works on my configuration? I don't need it to be frost proof, I will shut that line off for winter and keep faucet open.

this picture is the one I would like to have, its a nice one, big handle turns nice, but doesn't work for my wall.

the picture on right will work and its pretty much all I can find. I would like the one in first picture but with short pex fitting like in the right picture.

Aquor Water systems will fit within 2x4 space and are freeze proof, even more so if using pex. I used in my home build and they have been flawless. The system does require a proprietary twist lock adapter, but overall, very easy to use and easily accessible from the exterior should the need arise.

If You use one of the regular bibs vs the non-freeze put a ball valve for a shut-off inside the wall so you can shut the water off for the winter. The only issue then is remembering to do it.
