Not entirely sure how the listing for Peachtree and Peachtree didn't find anything in Georgia.

There's a ton for "Peach Tree" and "Peach Tree" Edit: Misread, I thought you meant there weren't any results, not even in Georgia. The best I could do is "Peach" and "Peach Tree" for GA results.

Years ago, I was visiting friends in Atlanta, one of whom was a civil engineer for GDoT. He took me to the intersection of Rosser Rd and Rosser Pl.

  That's hardly uncommon. Up near Calgary they went big on planned developments. If you lived in oaktree then you would come in on Oaktree Road, turn off on Oaktree lane, take the corner at Oaktree Place, and then turn on your street, Oaktree circle. Mail got misdelivered quite frequently in that area, often because the people addressing it weren't paying enough attention.

  Anecdotally that seems very common in the suburbs of Atlanta. We're lazy about our street names here. I live at X Road and X Court (for some value of X) and that's not the only intersection like that in my subdivision. If I had a good data set I'd check if it's actually particularly common here or if I just noticed it since I moved here.

  Just outside Vancouver (Canada) you can find the intersection of Lougheed Highway and Lougheed Highway.

Here in Seattle there is an intersection between Belmont Avenue and Belmont Place, two blocks away from the intersection of Bellevue Avenue, Bellevue Place, and Bellevue Court. You might think that such an improbable intersection would be located within the city of Bellevue itself - but no, that's across the lake, ten miles east.

  Now they're all in Texas. Guess the relevance engine isn't perfect.

    Where are you? I tried this from work (physically in Georgia, but through a Texas VPN) and they were all in Texas; then I tried it from home (in Georgia) and they were in Georgia.

      Ireland. We have our share of intersecting roads, or occasionally, one named road that's tree shaped. Leads to google maps telling me to "turn left on the old mill, proceed to the old mill, turn right on the old mill, turn left on the old mill, then turn left on the fairyhouse road." (Finally.) Or developments/estates where the street addresses are literally: "6 The Avenue" or "5 The Close". Confuses the hell out of American databases.
