Why Paul Newman
New Homes?
At Paul Newman New Homes, quality is considered at every stage. Each development is individually designed to reflect its location, with carefully considered architecture, thoughtful layouts and attention to the details that make a home feel special.
We take the same care with how our homes are built, choosing quality materials and finishes with lasting appeal.
With Paul Newman personally involved in every development, there is a commitment to getting the details right and creating beautiful homes designed to be enjoyed for years to come.

An interview with Paul Newman
Q: What is the ethos behind Paul Newman New Homes?
“Our main focus is offering an exceptional, non-standard product that meets the needs and desires of home owners.
We pay close attention to every detail, elevations and internal layout designs that establishes the character of properties as well as functional design that makes homes both efficient and highly liveable. Achieving these objectives means we also deliver for our partners and investors.”
Q: How are your homes different?
Wherever possible we will exceed industry standards. The standard floor-to-ceiling height in a generic new home is 8ft. We will, in most cases start with a minimum of 9ft on the ground floor. This creates extra light and enhances the feeling of space.
We are also committed to using natural materials, particularly on elevations, bricks, tiles and slates creating designs that reflect the individuality of each surrounding. The scale, detail and the quality of our builds are far superior to the majority of comparable properties in the marketplace.
Q: What role do you play in each development?
I am hands-on at every stage to ensure a high level of design. I like to think I have a good eye for detail and, perhaps unusually for a developer, I approach every project as if I were building for myself.
This is not just a job or work for me, it is a passion. I care about the homes that have my name on and believe successful design and good quality are the route to making a decent profit.
Q: What are you proudest of?
I’m very proud of the wide range of developments and quality homes we’ve delivered across all tenures. We understand the marketplace we operate in, exceed expectations and consistently receive positive feedback from very satisfied homeowners.
I know everyone in our business is also immensely proud of working with the Prince’s Foundation on our site at Upton in Northampton. For a company that prides itself on the quality of its design credentials, it is hugely satisfying to have met the standards set by such a respected organisation.
I approach every project as if I were building for myself. This is not just a job or work, for me, it is a passion.
