A spout-mounted water filter assembly suitable for use with a shallow sink having a short necked spout. The water filter assembly includes a water filter unit and an extension pipe which provides additional vertical clearance between the base of the sink and the outlet of the filter unit. The extension pipe may further be dimensioned to provide additional clearance relative to an inner edge of the sink in order to prevent interference between the water filter unit and the sink. The water filter assembly of the present invention is versatile and may be configured in a variety of orientations to fit a variety of sink/faucet combinations.
