About this home
Set in the woods on the outskirts of Andrews, this Handyman Special two-bedroom, two-bath cottage is offered with 1.19 acres and its own swimming pool. The house needs work, but a contractor has already walked through it. With imagination and effort, this cottage can shine again. The pool needs attention, and the well is shared. The same house is also available with 12.63 acres -- see listing #100607012. Andrews is a quiet mountain town with a lot close by. Nantahala National Forest is nearby for hiking, camping, fishing, and mountain biking. The Valley River is known for trout -- and Heritage Park in Andrews is a stop on the Blue Ridge Snorkel Trail, so you can see the river's fish and other aquatic life up close. Nearby lakes are good for paddling and boating, and the Nantahala River is a short drive for whitewater. In town you can ride the Andrews Valley Rail Tour, grab coffee or pizza downtown, and visit local wineries. Murphy is about 15 minutes away for shopping, the riverwalk, and the casino. Farther out are Wayah Bald, Joyce Kilmer, the Tail of the Dragon, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Sold as-is -- a project property with a pool, and a setting that rewards the buyer willing to put in the work.
