Andrews-Moore House

The Andrews-Moore House is a historic plantation house located near Bunn, Franklin County, North Carolina.

The house was built by tobacco farmer William Andrews (??-1890) to be the home for his wife, daughter and himself. It was erected in two sections about 1780 and 1830, and was a large 2+12-story, Georgian-style timber frame dwelling with a one-story rear ell. It features two exquisite double paved-shouldered chimneys.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. After a recent restoration, the house caught on fire on March 29, 2006, destroying much of the building. The house was sold in 2010 to new owners, who launched a restoration effort.
