Weird, Odd and Down Right Strange Street Names
Almost every town has streets named after trees, like oak, maple, cypress and cherry. Most towns have a Main street or a High street, too. Some towns, though, want to be a little different than the rest and they start getting creative with street names. You may have never actually thought about the names of the streets before, even as a real estate agent. Once you start coming across weird street names, you may start paying more attention.
Imagine how difficult it would be to sell a house located on Farfrompoopen Road? This road is located in Story, Arkansas. I wonder how many times people living on this road have had to deal with uncontrollable laughter when asked for their street address.
Some road names are not quite so odd. In fact, there are some that are quite delicious. How about Candy Cane Lane in Redding, California? I wouldn't mind living there. It probably is quite festive around the holidays.
The next time you get a new listing take a minute to check out the street name. Be grateful if it turns out to be normal. There are some crazy street names out there and you should be thanking your lucky stars that you are not stuck trying to move a house located on Bucket of Blood Street in Holbrook, Arizona.
