There will also be around 595 car parking spaces provided, while 30 per cent of the homes will be affordable in the second phase .
At least £100,000 will be put into redeveloping St Annes town centre, while the firm will also give money towards school places, Fylde Council has said.
In 2008, the site’s then-owner Northern Trust applied for outline planning permission for two separate parcels of land, one smaller one to the south of Clifton Drive North and one to the north.
Permission was granted and the land was sold to Persimmon.

A spokesman for Persimmon Homes Lancashire said: “The Coastal Dunes development has proved very popular, both with local buyers and people keen to move into the town.
“We are now working on phase two, which will provide 353 homes.
“So far 70 properties are occupied in phase one.”
