I don't think I've ever heard this expression in German. They usuallay say: Ich wohne ungefähr 100m von hier. Ich wohne zwei Straßen weiter von hier. Ich wohne von hier ungefähr 200m diese Straße herunter. (Ich wohne von hier zwei Blöcke) - I've never heard this. And I think it sounds to inexact for Germans. They do love to be precise, you know.
