Why Paragon's Custom Approach Delivers Superior Results
The term "custom home" is often used loosely in South Fayette's real estate market. While many builders offer a handful of floor plans with limited modifications, Paragon Homes delivers truly custom homes that begin with your vision, not ours.
True Custom Building vs. Production Building
Most builders in South Fayette follow a production model: select from pre-designed plans, choose from limited finish packages, and pay premium prices for "upgrades" that should be standard features. At Paragon Homes, we take a fundamentally different approach.
Want to sketch your own design? Bring us magazine clippings? Work with an architect? Our process starts with your ideas, not a catalog of pre-existing plans. While we offer inspiration through our portfolio of home plans like The Acadia and The Asheville, these are just starting points for creating your unique home.
A Location That Enhances Your Lifestyle
South Fayette's strategic location offers the perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility. Medical professionals at St. Clair Hospital enjoy a stress-free 15-minute drive. Tech professionals heading to Southpointe Business Park benefit from similar convenience, while downtown Pittsburgh remains easily accessible for city professionals.
South Fayette School District's prestigious ranking in the top 10% of Pennsylvania schools makes this community ideal for families prioritizing education. The area's blend of green spaces, modern amenities, and a strong sense of community creates an environment where young professionals and growing families thrive.
Where Standard Means Exceptional
Unlike other builders who charge premium prices for essential features, our standard specifications exceed industry norms:
2x6 exterior wall construction with superior insulation (others use 2x4)
Energy-efficient Andersen wood windows (not vinyl)
Granite countertops throughout (not laminate with upgrade fees)
Hardwood and ceramic flooring in main living areas (not vinyl)
Custom-designed ceramic master showers (not fiberglass inserts)
15 recessed light locations of your choice (not basic builder-grade lighting)
These aren't upgrades—they're our starting point. When other builders' "customization" fees start adding up, remember that Paragon includes these premium features as standard.
