I may be wrong, but that could be my neck of the woods--New Orleans. Maybe even the Garden District with that oak tree. But the house has New England colors of white clapboard and black shutters, which would allow it to fit in on Nantucket or Concord, MA. 

 

Whose car is next to the house? Not Louisiana plates, but that could be a decoy. 

I' d guess the South. Hollywood would use this house, if it were in New Orleans, to look like somewhere else. 

Time to tease out a bit more.

1. It's not New England, and it's not New Orleans, but far closer to the latter than the former.

2. Its design shows an architectural quirk common in its town, and nearly unique to that area.
