Hi @GenerolHavoc, exactly what I suspected. This is a SAB. As you can see, it has a big circle drawn which means the owner gave a few hundred miles as a service area (basically to cover the whole of the northern island).
You can also define single cities or counties. Here is my service area for SV photography (not that my business is too active but you never know) where I defined Baranya County (where I live). Certainly it's completely irrelevant where exactly the business (as a legal entity) is located as I'd go to the premises of my clients to perform my services.
Best is to just leave these businesses alone. Google would probably not apply any changes anyway.
Some SAB's may also do business in their location. The owner can choose so and then you have an address to edit. Think of a pizza delivery (with an area they deliver within) but where you can also go to and take a pizza away.
Your example business would typically be a mere SAB though.
@Gaieus) Hi @GenerolHavoc, best would be to post a link to this particular POI as there may be several reasons for such a "behaviour".
One would be if this business does not serve customers in its brick and mortar residence (office, shop whatnot) but is a so called "Service Area Business" (SAB). In this case there's no exact address as it's irrelevant but the business goes to serve the customers in their places (think of a plumber for instance).
In some other cases, indeed the POI was added incorretly (say a building outline or an area renamed etc.). So we cannot give exact suggestions without looking into the very business first.
