COLTEN DEVELOPMENTS TIMELINE OF PREVIOUS DEVELOPMENTS
Established in 1971, we are unique in the market place, having operated for over 49 years with the same family-owned values since our inception. Principally located within the New Forest, Hampshire and Dorset areas, we have extensive experience designing and constructing residential developments, mixed-use commercial buildings, and award-winning nursing and dementia care homes.
In 2016, along with our sister company Colten Care (which owns and operates our care home division), we moved into Colten House, our purpose-built office headquarters in Ringwood, now home to over 85 employees. We have designed and constructed every care home for Colten Care and are immensely proud of our partnership.

1971 COLTEN DEVELOPMENTS Founded by John Colwell and Adrian Otten
With their extensive experience, John Colwell and Adrian Otten combined forces in 1971 as two young men and formed Colten Developments. The name Colten is derived from a combination of the two surnames of John and Adrian. Since then, Colten Developments has become synonymous with the highest standards of building and excellence, and now has a vast portfolio of developments.
