The plans were rejected by Aberdeen City Council planners last year, but the developer appealed.
The Scottish government’s planning reporter has now granted the appeal subject to a range of conditions.
They include adequate provision of parking with electrical charging points and a scheme to manage water levels within the quarry.
The quarry’s owner, Hugh Black, has planned a heritage centre on the south side of the quarry, opposite the potential apartments – and has previously opposed their construction.
