The Andromeda Galaxy is approximately 220,000 light-years in diameter, which is equivalent to about 1,294,833,160,000,000 miles.
On this scale, if the Milky Way were the size of a quarter, the Andromeda Galaxy would be about the size of a nickel. That would make them approximately 6 inches apart.
The Andromeda galaxy is about 2.5 million light-years away from the Milky Way galaxy. It is the closest spiral galaxy to our own.
About 2.5 million light years from Earth, but since the Earth and Sun are only 8 light minutes apart, there isn't that much of a difference in how far the Andromeda Galaxy is from the Sun or Earth. So the Andromeda Galaxy is about 2.5 million light years from the Sun and Earth.
The distance to the Andromeda Galaxy is estimated at 2.5 million light-years. The distinction between "near side" and "far side" is irrelevant, since the diameter of the Andromeda Galaxy is probably less than the error in the distance estimation.
Mars, like Earth, is in the Milky Way galaxy. The next nearest galaxy is the Andromeda galaxy, which is about 14,696,575,000,000,000,000 miles away.

Just about as far as the closest star in the Andromeda Galaxy. The diameter of the Andromeda galaxy is ... well, quite huge, but still relatively small, compared to the distance between us and the Andromeda Galaxy. And I believe this diameter may still be smaller than the uncertainty in the distance estimate!

The nearest Spiral Galaxy is our own Milky Way Galaxy. After that, is the Andromeda Galaxy.
Any measurement you wish. If you want to know how far away the Andromeda Galaxy is, then see the related question.

495940 miles Away
No, the Andromeda galaxy is a separate galaxy located about 2.5 million light-years away from our Milky Way galaxy. Our solar system is in the Milky Way galaxy, not in Andromeda.
