Regular expression for identifiying a valid street name + house number

Ole
Good day,

perhaps someone is interested in enhancing this regular expression

(^((\w+)(\-)?|(\.)?)+((\w+)((\s)+|((\.)(\s)*)))(\d+))

it is meant to filter a string, corresponding to a valid german street
+ housenumber entry like

Hans-Ebert-Weg Nr. 120
or
Dorfstr. SÜD 12-18
The problem is that the regex does not match any valid street entry.

Please give any suggestions or other possible street names, that would
increase the horizon of the above expression.

Greetings Ole VM.
