There is no VAT in the UK on new builds. There is TVA at 19.6 percent for work and materials on new builds in France. If you have a new home built and sell within 5 years then you will have to pay 19.6/119.6 per cent of the proceeds less the TVA you have already paid to the government even if it is you only house.
Some repair work carried out by artisans such as exterior rendering carries VAT at a reduced 5.5 % which is which you see many French New Builds unrendered for a couple of years.
I assume you have agreed the purchase price for the new house. At the end of the build you will receive an invoice which will be the agreed price and will be inclusive of TVA.
Your contract for purchase should indicate the TVA content of the contract.
