In 1920s Princeton, architect Rolf Bauhan was the trusted choice of discerning homeowners—and for good reason. His designs embraced enduring materials and refined architectural details that continue to resonate today. Halcyon House is a compelling example: while its stately brick exterior evokes the romance of an English Tudor, the interiors are notably bright and inviting. Natural light streams through leaded glass casement windows, transoms, and French doors, illuminating hardwood floors and elegant entertaining spaces anchored by intricately carved marble mantels. The home’s layout is both flexible and gracious, with rooms radiating from a generous foyer—large enough to function as a central gathering space or even accommodate a grand piano. The family room features a deep bay window and a concealed wet bar tucked behind antique wooden doors, while the library opens to an awning-covered patio overlooking the expansive, park-like grounds. A brick wall encloses a parterre garden and a sunlit Roman-style pool, accessed through a charming ivy-covered gate—an idyllic setting for both quiet relaxation and entertaining. Practicality complements character, with both a detached brick garage and an attached garage conveniently located near the kitchen entrance. The kitchen itself offers substantial space for customization, with ample room for cooking, dining, and storage alongside an adjoining butler’s pantry. Upstairs, a secondary staircase leads to two guest bedrooms, a shared bath, and the laundry area, while the main staircase ascends to the primary suite, a home office, and two additional bedrooms connected by a walk-through bath. The primary suite retains the option for dual bathrooms—an increasingly rare and desirable feature. Imagine the possibilities at this special legacy property set on 2.0 acres in a highly sought-after neighborhood adjoining the beautiful The Hun School of Princeton campus, with Nassau Street and Princeton University just 1.2 miles away.
