The two-home scheme was built by MacLeod Construction on behalf of Argyll Community Housing Association (ACHA).
The project, which comprises of two- and three-bedroom family accommodation, will compliment nine existing ACHA properties on the island which were built in the 1960s.
The development is part of a 122-unit programme currently on site by ACHA to meet housing need throughout Argyll and Bute.

Speaking at the opening ceremony last week, Alastair MacGregor, ACHA's Chief Executive, said: "Today is a milestone for ACHA, the first homes we have built on Coll since the stock transfer over 10 years ago. It is part of ACHA's ongoing commitment to provide housing for our island communities.
"At the present time we have housing on 12 of Argyll's islands. It is my hope that these homes will play a crucial part in meeting housing need on Coll and help us keep families on the island."
Councillor Robin Currie added: "I'm absolutely delighted to officially open two new homes on the Isle of Coll and particularly pleased as it's a development on a small island and is hugely important to address local needs.
"In recent years the number of houses available for let on the Isle of Coll has been very limited, so the addition of two quality new build houses is great and make an important contribution to the general health and well-being of local residents."
