--- title: Kissing Tree Goodwin --- ![KissingTreeLogo2020-Web-White_RedStar](https://stories.brookfieldresidential.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Kissing%20Tree/KissingTreeLogo2020-Web-White_RedStar.png?width=350&height=94&name=KissingTreeLogo2020-Web-White_RedStar.png "KissingTreeLogo2020-Web-White_RedStar")   Goodwin With a large, covered patio, a spacious great room, and a separate study, The Goodwin offers plenty of places to relax, live, and entertain. For this model home, our dream customer was Dot: an independent and fun-loving financial consultant who recently relocated from San Diego to be closer to grandchildren. Dot’s aesthetic is clean and airy, incorporating natural materials and beautiful pops of color in a way that’s best described as California chic.   Please note, the designer touches shown here were selected by our Interior Designers and are specific to this model home. While we don’t offer them as options, they could always be done after closing.   [![SEE ALL MODEL INSPIRATION](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3390596/c2bfaecd-5230-4fc6-9fa6-e41157b4630b.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3390596/c2bfaecd-5230-4fc6-9fa6-e41157b4630b)   ![Goodwin-HipToBeSquare](https://stories.brookfieldresidential.com/hubfs/KT%20DIY%20Landing%20Page/Goodwin/Goodwin-HipToBeSquare.jpg "Goodwin-HipToBeSquare") **It’s Hip to Be Square** This after-market custom “pop out” niche defines the Goodwin’s dining area. We added recessed puck lights to shine a spotlight on art and accessories. An accent paint color or a built-in bookcase could also add a similar layer of interest.

While this feature isn't included with the home, it's easy to get the look after you move in.

In this case, black eggshell trim stands out against white walls. This contrast trim isn’t part of the design package, but our designers chose it to create striking lines in the Owner’s Suite.

Custom lighting can be the simplest way to set the mood – and show your personal style.

While these mirrors aren’t included with the home, there are lots of similar options available.

Crazy for home-grown cucumbers? We added a custom pergola in the backyard, providing room to prep tomatoes and store tools so everything is right at hand. There are many similar options you could add once you move in.
