No. Houses don't generally have names, they have numbers. This
proposal is about houses that are so isolated that they don't have
street numbers, and they're not even associated with a town. So
effectively they're a town by themselves. Only they're too small to be
towns, or even hamlets. Hence, "isolated dwellings".

HTH.
