The Cresthaven is modern farmhouse with nothing wasted — clean lines, warm materials, and light that makes an ordinary morning feel like a good one. Build it as shown — or customize to fit your lifestyle.

Step inside the Cresthaven and the first thing you notice is the light — it moves through the open main level all day, soft and low in the early hours, bright and generous when the house is full. The spaces don't just connect; they flow, so a quiet coffee and a kitchen packed with people both feel right at home here. This is the rare house that's calm when it's empty and effortless when it's not. It's a home built around the rhythm of your actual days, not a showroom.

Here's what the listing doesn't tell you: the Cresthaven isn't tied to the address you saw on Zillow. That's simply where the plan is anchored online — this home is designed to be built on your lot or on a property we've identified across the DC metro. You've got two paths. Bring us your own land, or talk to us about the hundreds of properties — lots, teardowns, and aging homes — that we evaluate across the region for potential acquisition. You're not buying someone else's house. You're building yours. Tell us where you want to build.

Why the Cresthaven
  • An open main level that flows from kitchen to gathering spaces — so the cook is never cut off from the conversation, and a houseful of guests never feels crowded.
  • Sun-filled rooms that change with the day — gentle morning light for coffee, warm afternoon glow that means you reach for the light switch less.
  • Warm, durable materials chosen to look better with age — a home that feels lived-in from day one and holds up to real family life.
  • Finishes tailored to your routines — from the mudroom drop zone after busy days to the pantry that finally fits the way you actually cook.
  • Designed and built by Paramount's in-house architects — so the layout can shift to suit your lot, your sightlines, and the way you want to live in it.

Your Investment

How New Home Pricing Works

This price is based on our Protos Specifications and includes an estimated land allowance. Your actual investment depends on the lot — yours or one we've identified — along with site conditions, home size, and finishes.

Build it exactly as shown or change every detail — the strategy call is where we put real numbers together based on your priorities.

Here's how the process works. It's three distinct phases, each with a purpose:

Phase 1

Design & Selections

This is where your home takes shape. Plans are created or modified by our in-house architects. You choose finishes, fixtures, and layout — or let our design team handle it for you.

Phase 2

Permitting

We submit your plans and manage the approval process with your local jurisdiction. This phase runs in the background while final details are locked in.

Phase 3

Construction

Your home is built. Every decision has already been made, and the build moves with purpose. Most homes are completed within 15 to 18 months from lot selection to move-in, though timelines can vary based on design complexity, client selections and decision-making, and local permitting.

Whether you want to choose every tile and finish yourself or let Paramount's design team handle the selections for you, we match the process to how you want to build.
