The houses are two-bed back-to-backs with a roof garden. Prices start at £183,000.
Buiding work has continued over the past three months, complying with social distancing regulations, according to CODA chairman David Cross.
He added: "To say we have been overwhelmed by the response to Sky-House over the past few weeks would be an understatement. Even with the lockdown, there has been no decline in interest.”

"We are particularly pleased that we are now talking to Rotherham Council and Harworth Group about the second phase of Waverley," David said.
It is set to comprise 44 three and four-bedroom houses.
The company’s pipeline for 2021 includes four locations and almost 150 homes, he added.
