We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
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.
