19 Castle Street, Dingwall, IV15 9HU

Castle Street sits just to the north east of Dingwall town centre, where traditional homes line the road. This substantial detached house, The Orchard, offers a sense of scale and presence that becomes clear long before stepping inside. The house sits within a roughly rectangular plot with garden ground to the front, side and rear. A long private tarmac driveway leads up to the front of the property, providing valuable off street parking.
You step in through the entrance vestibule, into the main hallway, where the character of the house immediately comes through. White walls are paired with rich dark timber throughout, from the staircase and bannister to the skirting boards, door frames and internal doors. It’s a space that feels solid and full of charm and sets expectations nicely for the rooms that follow.
To the left, the dining room is a generous, welcoming space. Red painted walls and white cornicing frame the room, with a large front facing window bringing in plenty of light. A stove with a black decorative surround sits as a natural focal point, while the proportions give you plenty of freedom in how the room is used, whether for everyday meals or larger gatherings.
Across the hall, the office is another sizeable room with a high ceiling, neutral finishes and a large window that keeps the space feeling open. It’s a versatile room that could be used for a number of things, making it easy to imagine as a calm working area, reading room or hobby space.
Moving further along the hall, the sitting room opens up into one of the most impressive spaces in the house. A multi-fuel stove sits on a broad black hearth, framed by a wooden mantel with grey marble effect backing. The bay window, finished with dark timber framing, draws your eye immediately, while the high ceiling, detailed cornicing and soft grey carpet give the room warmth. There’s plenty of space here to spread out and entertain.
The ground floor WC sits off the inner hall and is finished in crisp white, with a pedestal basin, white towel ladder radiator and a slim frosted window. Grey vinyl flooring keeps things practical, with small black tiles above the basin adding a bit of contrast.
The kitchen area is a bright, open room with a notably high ceiling that gives it a real sense of airiness. Wooden cabinets are paired with dark worktops, with a built-in double oven on one run of units and a built-in microwave on another. Between them is an electric hob with extractor hood above, while a stainless steel sink is positioned under the window on an opposite wall. It’s a room that feels easy to work in, with space for a small table and chairs too.
Just off the kitchen, the first utility room provides a useful working area, with white walls, additional storage and space and plumbing for laundry appliances. It’s a great spot to keep household tasks tucked out of the way.
Beyond this, a rear vestibule links through to a second utility room, which in turn provides access to the boiler room, keeping the servicing areas separate from the main living spaces.
Halfway up the staircase, the family bathroom sits on the half landing. It’s fitted with a cream coloured suite, including a bath with shower screen and mains shower over, along with a wash basin and toilet. The room is decorated with white walls, paired with dark blue wetwall panelling around the bath area. A modern white ladder towel radiator is fitted to keep the room warm.
Upstairs, the main landing leads to four bedrooms and a further bathroom.
The first bedroom is a large room with built-in wardrobes fitted with three mirror fronted sliding doors. The room enjoys thrree windows which help to bring light in at different points of the day, giving the room a bright, open feel. The en-suite bathroom is the real treat, with a jacuzzi bath that immediately sets it apart. Alongside this sits a separate shower enclosure with a rainfall shower head, finished with glass panels and mosaic tiling within the enclosure. A double wash basin is set side by side on a shared worktop with mirrors above, with a toilet and a chrome towel ladder radiator completing the room.
The second bedroom is another generous double, finished with light pink painted walls and light coloured carpet. A decorative open fireplace remains in place and three windows bring light into the room, two with small radiators positioned beneath to ensure the room remains heated year round.
Bedroom three is another large room, this one with light green carpet and an entire wall of built-in wardrobes, all painted white. It’s a practical space that offers substantial storage without feeling closed in. It offers plenty of space for bedroom furnitre making it an ideal bedroom for any member of the family.
The fourth bedroom is also a double, finished with light coloured walls and light green carpet. Two windows sit on the external wall, each with a radiator below, keeping the room balanced and comfortable.
On this floor a Jack and Jill bathroom is found, which can be accessed both from the landing and from bedroom four. It’s fitted with a toilet, wash basin and a bath with a Mira electric shower above. Light grey wood panelling lines the walls, paired with matching coloured tiling around the bath and shower area. It’s a handy addition to the floor.
Outside, the gardens are largely laid with grass and bordered by a mix of brick walling and timber fencing. Within the rear garden, a workshop building of timber frame and concrete block construction stands separately from the house, finished with a pitched metal sheet roof and offering useful additional space.
All in all, this is a house with real warmth beneath its scale, offering room to grow, work and gather, all within easy reach of Dingwall town centre.
