This beautiful old house with a thached Tudor style roof sits in a nieghborhood near downtown Caro. Originally built around 1868, the house was purchased in 1914 by William and Lovila Moore. William owned a telephone exchange company that had initially been based in Sandusky, Michigan, before relocating to Caro in 1896. When they acquired the property, it was designed in the Queen Anne style. In 1923, the Moores undertook a significant renovation of their home transforming it into the Tudor Revival style we see today. They also added a swimming pool, tennis courts, and various modern amenities. Lovila Moore resided in the house until her passing in 1937, while William J. Moore continued to live there until his retirement in 1947 and remained until he died in 1955.
