French Country

Style

French Country done with conviction — arches, coffers, herringbone oak — and then a cedar-and-glass entry tower that makes it clear this is no reproduction. You're not buying someone else's house — you're building yours. Build it as shown — or customize to fit your lifestyle.

The Winnett makes its argument at the front door. You step through a cedar-and-glass entry tower — glass climbing overhead, daylight pouring down the cedar — and land in a home detailed like the French Country classics: arched openings framing the view ahead, herringbone oak running underfoot. That collision is the whole idea — a Timeless exterior wrapped around a Modern first impression. Most 5,800-square-foot homes announce their size. This one announces its taste.

One thing Zillow gets wrong: the address you clicked isn't a community, and the Winnett isn't one plan in a development — it's a design that can be built anywhere across the DC metro. That's the advantage. There are two paths: build on your lot, or build on a property we've identified. Paramount evaluates hundreds of properties across the DC metro for potential acquisition — lots, teardowns, aging homes — as part of our own research, running constantly in the background. Most buyers start their search on Zillow; ours don't have to stop there. Tell us where you want to build.

Why the Winnett

Cedar-and-glass entry tower — daylight fills the foyer from above, so the first thing guests experience is light, not a hallway
Herringbone oak floors laid plank by plank — detail underfoot that no builder-grade home bothers with
Arched openings frame the sightline from room to room, so 5,858 square feet reads as one composition instead of a corridor of boxes
Coffered ceilings give the big rooms structure overhead — scale that feels designed, not just tall
Five bedrooms means the guest room, the in-law stay, and the office that isn't a converted closet all happen at once

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.

Not ready to wait? Browse our homes that are already complete or under construction.
