What is an example of a non-paracompact tvstopological vector space?

I'm aware of this question, but I don't care if my tvs is locally convex. In fact the wilder the better. The only criterion is that it should be contractible, which it would be, assuming $\mathbb{R} \times V \to V$ is continuous.

This is in order to answer this other question.

An example of a non-paracompact tvs (over the reals, say)

I know this is a basic question, but bear with me.
