The YorSpace development of 19 homes at Lowfield Green in Acomb aims to create permanently affordable houses that are owned as part of a co-operative.
The organization offers residents a chance to buy homes at 75 per cent of the market value and keeps the land in community hands forever.
They say the low carbon homes will be built to Passivhaus standards, reducing CO2 emissions and energy bills and making them more affordable to run too.
