Build on your Lot
Build a Custom Paragon Home on Your Lot in the Pittsburgh Area
Already own land or just closed on the perfect property? At Paragon Homes, we make it easy to bring your dream home to life—right on the land you already love.
Since 1987, we’ve been building custom homes throughout the Pittsburgh area, including some of our very first homes on customer-owned lots. We specialize in helping families take their vision and turn it into a home that fits their land, lifestyle, and budget.
Building Offsite? No Problem.
Paragon Homes has extensive experience building custom homes on privately owned lots across Western Pennsylvania—from rolling hillsides and wooded acreage to tucked-away suburban spaces.
While we do not assist with land acquisition, once you’ve secured your lot, we can take it from there. Our team will help ensure the site is build-ready and guide you through every stage of the building process.
We’ll assist with:
- Lot evaluation and feasibility
- Soil and utility assessments
- Home design tailored to your property
- Land permitting, zoning compliance, and approvals
Why the Paragon Process Is Better
With most builders, you’re expected to piece everything together on your own—find the land, hire an architect, pull permits, coordinate utilities, and then find someone to build. That disconnected, old-school process causes many people to give up before they even start.
At Paragon, we do things differently. Once you have your land, we handle the rest with a streamlined, builder-led process designed to eliminate the stress and simplify every step.
The result?
- Faster timelines: We manage design, budgeting, and permitting in parallel—not one at a time.
- Smarter design: Your home is customized to your land and lifestyle—with real-time pricing insight to avoid costly surprises.
- Better value: You’ll avoid the pitfalls of overdesign and miscommunication with our unified team guiding the way.
