The homes, for Caledonia Housing Association, are located at Berryknowe Avenue.
Built by Morris & Spottiswood, the £2.1 million development, which was supported by £1.3 million of Scottish Government funding, includes an accessible bungalow and eight two-storey houses, helping provide much needed high quality, affordable housing for the area.
Marking the handover were Julie Cosgrove, Chief Executive of Caledonia Housing Association, Brian Pettigrew, Sector Director, Housing at Morris & Spottiswood and Stephen Llewellyn, Chief Officer (Housing), North Lanarkshire Council. They welcomed the first tenant, Sean Drew, as the guest of honour at the ribbon-cutting event.

Julie Cosgrove, Chief Executive of Caledonia Housing Association, said: "We are thrilled to have taken control of this new development. Berryknowe Avenue is the first project for Caledonia in North Lanarkshire and it delivers new, high quality, energy efficient homes. As well as the new homes, we have also amended the road junction to form a bend and created a new footpath to nearby Cumbernauld Road. I am excited to see our new tenants move into their new homes from the 9 September."
Brian Pettigrew, Housing Sector Director at Morris & Spottiswood, said: "We are delighted to have delivered these much-needed energy efficient, high quality and attractive homes to the local Chryston area. This was our first project working in partnership with Caledonia Housing Association and we very much look forward to growing this relationship further and to the future opportunities it brings."
