Depending on which new towel rack you choose, you can often buy one longer than you need, mount the brackets where you want and then cut the bar to fit. I had to do this on a towel bar I installed on the end of a kitchen cabinet. I used this bar: https://www.homedepot.com/p/MOEN-Preston-24-in-Towel-Bar-in-Spot-Resist-Brushed-Nickel-DN8424BN/202044096 The cut ends of the bar fit inside the brackets and cannot be seen. Good luck. More on reddit.com
