Paramount Heights

By Jessica Car · Updated April 2026

Adjacent to the 242-acre Crown Hill Park and Open Space, Paramount Heights offers spacious third-acre lots with homes built between the 1950s and 1970s, mostly ranch with some two-story, bi-level, tri-level, and multi-level plans. Sizes range from 1,300 to 4,000 square feet with 2-car garages. Tree-lined streets and the nearby lake create a natural buffer from the busier corridors.
