Would The Street Name Put You Off Buying The Property?

You love the property but the name of the street is unfortunate! Would you still buy the property?

Here is a list of street names that have put people off buying....

Stalin Road
Loveless Gardens
Spankers Lane
Rats Lane
Spiders Lane
Lickers Lane
Loveless Lane
Devils Lane
Dumbwoman Lane
Backside Lane

Would it put you off?

Shouldn't think so, Slack Bottom is a nice hamlet tucked away in the hills above Hebden Bridge.

Not if I really liked the property - it could be quite a talking point !!

Not a street name, but what about Wyre Piddle? Friends of mine live in a village named Willey.

It may but it'd have to be bad.

Given that you don't have to give the name of the road(just postcode)nowadays it matters less.
