LBS Group, which operates LBS Horticulture Ltd from Standroyd Mill, has also been given approval to demolish a weaving shed and a single storey office.
The consent allows for 31 two and three-storey houses to be built on Cotton Tree Lane, and the four-storey mill transformed into eight flats and six townhouses
The mill, built in 1876, is currently used for the sale and distribution of garden products, but a spokesman for the company declined to discuss what the future plans are for LBS Horticulture if the works proceed.
The plan is a re-sumbitted application at the council's request for more traditional looking properties.
