Fenland District Council has agreed detailed plans for a pair of four-bed properties in Friday Bridge, between Wisbech and Outwell.
Two neighbours were against the proposals for the site on Woodhouse Farm Close, off Jew House Drove which had already been granted outline permission.

One said they did not fit in with surrounding houses, adding: "They are also too close to the main entrance of the close, and will look unsightly."
Another added: "The dwellings will have no privacy from traffic entering and leaving the close."
But planning officers said the chalet-style proposals were a “high-quality form of development” that reflects the character of the nearby barn-style homes.
Elm Parish Council also supported the application.
Both houses will have a brick-weave driveway, shrubs planted in their front gardens and rear lawns.
