CCG Homes has been given the go ahead by council planning officials to construct the new development on the site south of Edinburgh Road, to the east of Tanfield Street.
The site, in Springboig, used to be the home of St John’s secondary school, and has become overgrown over the years.
The development will be made up of 156 units - 124 houses and 32 apartments, with a mix of two-, three-, and four-bedroom options.
