FOR SALE BY MODERN AUCTION
A characterful 5-bedroom detached house situated in a peaceful riverside location in the historic village of Cawood.

FOR SALE BY MODERN METHOD OF AUCTION

The Old Mill occupies a delightful position in the historic centre of Cawood, quietly situated above the banks of the River Ouse. This attractive row of period houses presents a particularly picturesque setting — a hidden gem offering charming riverside views and scenic walks from the doorstep.

A mill is believed to have stood on this site for many centuries. The property seen today dates from the 1800s and, while sympathetically modernised, retains its period character and distinctive charm.

Arranged over three floors, the accommodation has been thoughtfully updated with bright, neutral décor and high-quality fittings throughout. The ground floor includes an extended kitchen-dining room, two reception rooms, a utility room and a cloakroom. On the upper floors, the principal bedroom benefits from an en suite bathroom, with four further double bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

The garden lies to the front of the property, with a lawn leading to a decked riverside terrace that enjoys superb views over the water. Surrounded by mature trees, this private, leafy setting offers a haven for wildlife and those who enjoy a peaceful riverside lifestyle.

The property enjoys a tranquil position where Old Road meets Water Row, a historic footpath lined with period homes and providing access to beautiful riverside walks. There is off-street parking for approximately two vehicles to the front, with additional space available along Old Road if required.

Cawood, once home to the Archbishop of York, is a historic and highly regarded village with origins dating back to the 10th century. Today it offers a range of local amenities including a post office and store, three public houses, a primary school and a sports centre. Conveniently located between York and Selby, the village also provides excellent access to the A1(M), A64, M62 and Leeds.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
