Ferry Road, Dingwall IV15

Once the walls of a 19th-century jail, this striking b-listed building now offers something very different – stylish, character-filled homes with a unique story to tell. Flat 7 occupies a first-floor position in this historic conversion, just a short stroll from Dingwall’s town centre, amenities and transport links. With high ceilings, sash windows and modern decor, this one-bedroom mixes period charm with modern living.

The secure shared entrance opens to a carpeted stairwell and landing, leading to the private front door of the flat. Inside, a small hallway flows directly into the bright living room. This is a spacious area filled with natural light from multiple tall windows. Pale grey carpet underfoot and crisp neutral décor, including a darker grey feature wall, create a calm, welcoming space. Wall-mounted electric heaters provide warmth year round. Its size provides comfortable space for sofa seating and other furniture.

The bedroom is a double with high ceilings, soft blue painted walls and complimenting grey carpet. A tall sash window brings in natural light, while a mounted black clothes rail adds practical storage without compromising floor space.

Compact but cleverly designed, the kitchen features light wood-effect cabinets with black handles, black acrylic worktops and a stainless steel sink. Mosaic-style black splashback tiles surround the work areas, giving both a stylish and low-maintenance finish. Appliances include a built-in electric oven and electric hob, with undercounter space for a washing machine. A built-in storage cupboard adds extra convenience.

The bathroom is finished in a modern monochrome palette, with black tiling around the bath and shower area and white painted walls elsewhere. The full length bath includes a shower above and screen to the side, while a small chrome towel radiator, pedestal basin with mirror above and white toilet complete the space.

The flat is heated by modern electric panel heaters, with hot water supplied via twin immersion heaters at the hot water cylinder. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are in place. The property also benefits from a shared ground-floor storage room and access to a communal gravel parking area around the building.
