I agree with everything written in all the posts above, besides this
citation which I'd like to relativate in parts: track does not seem
appropriate, they'll either be service or residential roads, as long as
they don't provide through access and residences are sparse like in this
example. (through access but unimportant (i.e. there are nearby
alternatives) and denser residences would still be residential IMHO, while
through way / connections generally tend to be at least unclassified (or
tertiary, etc.)). I wouldn't use unclassified for a situation like the
posted one, which is merely a short stub (no through traffic possible) and
a dead end.

Cheers,
Martin
