If you have some furniture to start with, I would just use the basics for now and live in your home for at least 6 months - 12 is better - and get the feel of the house, the lighting, how the rooms are affected by heat and cold, decide how you are going to live in each room and what your needs will be. This will also help you determine traffic flow, which ultimately affects how your arrange your furniture. It is amazing how many times you can change your mind during this initial period. Most importantly, create your home for YOU, not to impress others, you are the one living in it and happiness comes from the peace and contentment you feel in your surroundings. In the meantime, look through photos on Houzz for ideas, save them in your ideas book for reference and use this to build your decorating.

We recently went through the same process, including considering buying from USA and re-wiring or whatever would be required (I put that idea into too hard/risky basket and ended up back with a company we had used before lode international lighting). The closest I know of in your approx $100 range would be something like this http://www.homeoflights.com.au/MAS6WLED/MASON-2LT-6WATT-LED-VANITY/pd.php (also 3 light option but even more $$ over budget). More modern in style than you are probably after. Mercator Alysha 3 light may be another option in the $100-150 price range. In our ensuite, where steam concern were higher we used very well priced Philips Aquafit wall lights from Bunnings. I believe they are avail in 1, 2 or 3 lights. Again a bit more modern in style.

Having helped my mother in law with her shower room (she has MS) and helping a friend who just broke her leg ... the bigger shower is a great decision, but I wouldn't build in a bench. down the track if she needs to sit to shower, she will probably need a shower chair with arms to lower herself up and down and to be able to move it around if someone is helping her shower. then anyone else showering can just take it out and enjoy the bigger shower!
