The Bishops Glade development off Bellman Walk in Ripon.
Harrogate Borough Council officers have given final approval for 145 homes in Ripon.
Harron Homes will build the homes at Bishop's Glade, off Bellman Walk.
The developer already had outline permission for 131 homes, which was granted by the council in 2017. But the company sought approval for a further 14 last year.

The council’s planning committee deferred the application to the council’s chief planner to approve in June last year.
Now, the development has been given final permission to go-ahead.
The proposal will include a mixture of three, four and five-bed homes. The developer has also agreed to allocate 58 homes as affordable housing.
Harron Homes describes the development as "a hidden gem which borders picturesque woodlands and open fields easily accessible for a morning walk to set you up for the rest of your day".
