How do I cite a (reprinted) multivolume work in one volume, Turabian style? The way I see it, I have two options:

Fairbairn, Patrick. Typology of Scripture. [4th ed.?] 2 vols. New York: Funk & Wagnalls, 1900; reprint, Grand Rapids: Kregel, 1989.

or

Fairbairn, Patrick. Typology of Scripture. [4th ed.?] 2 vols. in 1. New York: Funk & Wagnalls, 1900; reprint, Grand Rapids: Kregel, 1989.

Which is correct? Is there another, better option? Or does it simply not matter?

(The book retains the original page numbering [i.e. vol. 2 starts on p. 1], so I have to treat it as 2 volumes whichever form I pick.)

I would try to cite the edition. If the current edition of a multi-volume work you are using is no longer in multiple volumes then you can technically cite it as a single volume work. If it is the first edition you might specify 1st Condensed Ed. If each volume is still using the original page numbering then I would treat it as a multi-volume citation and simply use volume:page references in the notes, and standard citation in the bibliography.

Derived from:

A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations (7th. ed.)

Specifically helpful sections:

Revised Edition of a Book
Multi-volume Work
Book with Multiple Additional Elements

Finally, this version of the guide is available for download.

Go for the first option. The "in 1." in the second option is more confusing, at least to me. I don't really understand what you mean by it.
