Search the Public Notice PortalDozens of new homes are set to be built as part of a major £6.4 million housing scheme.
First Choice Homes Oldham (FCHO) has signed a contract to deliver 27 affordable homes on a brownfield site off Bury Old Road in Heywood.
The homes will include 13 two-bedroom and 14 three-bedroom properties.
Nineteen will be available for social rent, and eight offered as rent-to-buy.
Built Developments Limited will deliver the scheme.
Work is due to start next month with completion scheduled for May next year.
Andy Ewart, executive director of corporate services and deputy chief executive at FCHO, said: "First Choice Homes Oldham is really pleased we are now able to move at pace with this development of much-needed family homes for Rochdale Borough.
"These will be highly efficient off-gas properties with solar panels installed and they will be net zero.

"This means they will be very cheap to heat and run – a key consideration in all our new builds."
The project is partly funded by a £2.18m grant from Homes England and £540,000 from the Greater Manchester Combined Authority’s Brownfield Housing Fund.
Mr Ewart said: "FCHO has a pipeline of developments across Oldham and Rochdale borough at locations where people want to live, that are enhancing existing communities and that are close to transport links and amenities."
