And developers Berkeley Homes say they will offer local people first pick of the 62 new properties with prices starting at £190,000.
The flats are being built above the Bishops Weald building - opposite the Lynd Cross pub - at a site now named The Paperyard.

Hide AdControversy surrounded the site when development was put on hold in 2017 following completion of works on the retail side of the development - part of which had been home to McDonalds for 25 years.
Work re-started when Berkeley Homes confirmed last year that it was taking on the final phase of the scheme.
Now Berkeleys say they are launching a ‘Horsham First’ reservation scheme, giving local people a chance, they say, to have first choice on the flats.
The company is to hold a special reservation event at Horsham’s Everyman Cinema on March 7 from 10am-4pm.
Berkeley Southern managing director Harry Lewis said that the company hoped it could help local people ‘make that first step onto the property ladder.’
