API that can give the latitude and longitude ranges from the address

Question

Is there any API available that can get the latitude and longitude boundaries from the address.

For example if we provide: 12380 Sunnyvale avenue, CA, 90005

Can we get the latitude minimum and maximum, longitude minimum and maximum for that address?

If that's a single postal address then do you want the boundary of the building or the parcel of land? I very much doubt either exist except in specialised local land management systems. Have you looked at the Google Maps API? Do you want USA only? Or only some states? — Spacedman, Jul 24 '19 at 16:57
Usually geocoding API's return a single LAT/LON for the location of the address. — DPSSpatial_BoycottingGISSE, Jul 24 '19 at 17:44

Nominatim gives the bounding box (max/min latitude and longitude) using the api. see this

"boundingbox":["35.155971","35.156072","-117.79738","-117.792992"],

What does that bounding box describe? The land parcel? – Dan C Jul 29 '19 at 15:28
