The homes are being built at Jossey Lane in the Scawthorpe area, on land formerly owned by construction multinational Skanska.
The new community will include 45 homes for sale under the Group’s Linden brand with a further 41 being developed for The Guinness Partnership and available for affordable rent.
The development comprises a range of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom homes. A new vehicular and pedestrian access is being created from Jossey Lane with a Green corridor to run alongside the main entrance road. Views are being retained to the Trans Pennine Trail on the west side of site and the site entrance is close to the pedestrian link to the Trail which links to Route 62 of the National Cycling Network.

Andrew Poyner, Managing Director of Countryside Partnerships Yorkshire said: "It's great to see work commence on this fantastic new community which will enhance the area and make use of land which has been vacant for some time.
"We're delighted to be working with Guinness again after the significant regeneration project at Fox Hill in Sheffield which is due to complete in the coming weeks."
