Homes in Camberley
Camberley grew around the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and the Staff College, with Victorian and Edwardian villas near the town centre and Crawley Hill. Heatherside and Old Dean have estates from the 1960s and 1970s, and Frimley has a mix of older cottages and later homes.
Deepcut has a large new-build development on former army land. Camberley sits on sandy Bagshot Beds heathland, which drains well but can be loose, and pine trees are common. The Blackwater River runs along the western edge, with some flood risk. Prices are moderate by Surrey standards, attracting families and military personnel. Many older Victorian villas near the town centre have been converted into flats or offices. The heathland setting brings a heightened wildfire risk on nearby commons in very dry summers, and pine trees close to houses can cause roof and gutter problems. Frimley Park Hospital is a major local employer, and the M3 gives good links to London.
Areas we cover include Camberley Town, Frimley, Heatherside, Old Dean, Yorktown, Deepcut, Mytchett, Crawley Hill.
