Set in the woods on the outskirts of Andrews, this Handyman Special two-bedroom, two-bath cottage is being offered with 12.63 acres and its own swimming pool. The property runs up toward the ridge, giving you unrestricted privacy, timber, and room to spread out. The house needs work, but a contractor has already walked through it, and with imagination and effort this cottage can be brought back to life. The pool and deck needs attention, and the well is shared. The same house is also available with 1.19 acres -- see listing #100607014. Andrews is a quiet mountain town with more to do than first meets the eye. Nantahala National Forest is close for hiking, camping, fishing, and mountain biking. The Valley River is known for trout and is on the National Snorkel Trail. Nearby lakes offer 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 afield are Wayah Bald, Joyce Kilmer, the Tail of the Dragon, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Sold as-is -- a project property with land, a pool, and a setting that rewards the buyer willing to put in the work
