Keepmoat will deliver 401 new homes on the former Woodford Lodge High School site in Winsford.
The 30-acre Woodford Grange site will contain 130 'affordable' properties and will be the first local authority houses built within the Borough for nearly 40 years.
Other features include a green corridor, a central village garden, outdoor play facilities at Hebden Green and Oakland schools as well as a modern 3G pitch at Winsford Academy.

Gareth Roberts, regional managing director for Keepmoat in the North West, said: "Working in partnership with the Council, we have identified key ways to regenerate a surplus piece of land and really invest in Winsford while creating housing solutions – particularly for first time buyers. This major new scheme will also create new job opportunities, which supports the Council's aspirations for Winsford."
Cllr Angela Claydon added: "The partnership will provide a true mix of properties including 130 homes built for the Council which will give people a real choice from a range of new build homes."
Work is expected to start on site this month.
