Rural properties in Australia, even those close to towns, often have
names... Even if the rural renumbering scheme has also given these
places numbers... Houses located within towns usually don't have
names, although some do.

Towns and hamlets are usually incorporated in one form or another,
isolated buildings aren't, in any case you can tell how isolated a
building is by comparing features around it, you don't need to
explicitly say it's isolated.
