The small town of Cobham's heritage can be traced back to the Iron Age, and is almost encircled by the River Mole, a tributary of the Thames, which provides a rural appearance to the village in some places. The town's best known landmark is an early 19th century watermill, set on the picturesque banks of the river. In 2005 Chelsea Football Club moved its training ground to Stoke D'Abernon on the outskirts of the town, and as a result house prices in Cobham rose dramatically. Cobham property is varied, and includes period properties dating back several centuries, modern executive style properties with large and flexible family accommodation, Victorian cottages and terraced properties, developments of apartments built specifically for the over 55's market and brand new duplex apartments. Many of the properties for sale in Cobham overlook the village green and benefit from riverside locations.
