The Nathaniel Ingraham house at 2 Water Street represents a rare opportunity to own one of the few remaining single family homes on High Battery. Owned by many notable figures over its 200 year history including current owner and renowned contemporary artist John Dunnan this magnificent modified Federal property has undergone an exhaustive restoration and renovation, with attention to detail and an eye for historic integrity evident throughout. Upon entering this circa 1810 residence, your eyes are drawn to the grand living room facing Charleston Harbor. Tall windows take full advantage of the natural light and water views. Restored moldings in the Federal style frame the room and windows, with original Heart pine floors, an Adamesque fireplace mantel and a Venetian chandelier adding to the historic ambiance. The room transitions easily into the formal dining room, creating a seamless flow for entertaining. A turn-of-the-century tin ceiling graces the dining room, as do a fireplace and a Federal "wave" chair rail. French doors open onto the Piazza, further extending the living and entertaining space. An adjoining kitchen is part of a new wing added in 2007, with a Caesar Stone island, stunning 17th century marble sink and five sets of French doors opening onto the Piazza. The master suite can be found on the second floor, with windows overlooking the harbor, His and Her walk-in closets, a gas fireplace and luxurious bath with two antique vanities. A sitting room with the original cedar ceiling and an attached full bath is also found on this floor, perfect as an office, den or nursery. The third floor offers three bedrooms and two full baths, creating a private area for guests. Additional guest quarters can be found on the ground level, with a living area, bedroom, full bath, kitchen and separate entrance creating an apartment if desired. A portion of this level was added during the 2007 renovation and features a dry sauna, steam shower, laundry room and garage. Bluestone flooring and decorative ceiling beams were added to mimic the details of the original structure. The gated driveway, courtyard and garden feature custom ironwork and are overflowing with Confederate Jasmine, Camphor trees and Palmettos. Guests will linger by the inviting pool, surrounded by fountains and bluestone pavers that lead to a "secret garden" at the rear of the property. This important home has been featured in over 20 publications and is truly a work of art.
