I’m Simon Anley, a personal estate agent covering Cawood and the surrounding YO8 villages. Cawood is a historic riverside village with a strong sense of community, and I help homeowners here sell with clear pricing, professional marketing and one-to-one support throughout.

Cawood is a historic village on the River Ouse, popular with buyers who want character homes, village life and access to York and Selby. I offer a 0.8% on completion, no-sale no-fee service in Cawood with pro photography, floorplans, video, social media marketing and fully accompanied viewings.
Cawood’s market is shaped by its riverside setting, historic streets and limited stock. To achieve the best result, homes need to be launched with care — especially character properties and those with unique features.
No sale, no fee. A £30 AML check applies per vendor, and EPC only if required.
Book Your Cawood ValuationCawood appeals to a real mix of buyers — from families to downsizers and commuters looking for character and a village setting. The following types of homes often attract the strongest interest:
As stock is limited, good-quality listings can do very well — provided pricing is realistic and the marketing shows off the best of the home and the village.
I work across the Selby and York villages full-time, including Cawood, Wistow, Riccall and Escrick. My model is simple: low-volume, high-service. That means you’re never passed between staff or waiting days for an update.
You can see how this works in practice on my client reviews page.
