Description

 Griffin Lodge, Colton House – Colton, Staffordshire

Property Overview


An exceptional opportunity to own part of one of Staffordshire’s most historic homes. Griffin Lodge is the west wing of the grand and iconic Colton House, a Grade II* listed building steeped in history and architectural beauty. Situated in the sought-after village of Colton, this property blends timeless character with family-friendly living – and it’s all just a short drive from Rugeley, Lichfield and Stafford.

Owners' Comments


“We couldn’t believe our luck when Griffin Lodge became available 45 years ago. Colton was everything we dreamed of – a peaceful village that wasn’t just a place people passed through. It had a real sense of community, with two brilliant pubs, a lovely village hall, and a primary school all within walking distance. We’ve raised our family here and created the most beautiful memories. Living in part of Colton House – with all its history – has been an absolute privilege. It’s more than a home. It’s a lifestyle.”


Accommodation


Step through the charming porch, and you're immediately welcomed into a grand drawing room-style living area, complete with high ceilings, traditional features, and an open fire that creates a wonderful focal point – perfect for cosy evenings and entertaining alike.

To the rear of the property, you’ll find a kitchen and separate utility room that sit on a slightly lower level. This subtle split-level design not only adds to the home’s charm but also provides an absolutely beautiful view over the garden – making cooking and daily routines feel just that bit more special.

One of the home’s best-kept secrets is the hidden reading room/study – tucked away and ideal for those who work from home or simply want a quiet spot to escape with a book.

Upstairs, there are three generously sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. Above, you'll find a converted loft room currently used as a fourth bedroom. While it doesn’t have building regulations certification and can’t officially be listed as a bedroom, it offers incredible additional space for guests, teenagers, hobbies or storage – a real bonus that simply adds to the flexibility of this home.

Outside Space & Parking


  • Ample driveway parking to the front and rear – a rare feature for a historic property
  • Attractive, private garden with lawn and patio areas
  • Ideal for relaxing, entertaining or just soaking in the peaceful village setting
