Bungalow.
I'm fiddling around with GIMP. Does this photograph look as though it were taken on film? Normally when I want something to look like it was on film I make it blurry and increase the contrast, but I tried adding some different idiosyncrasies here.
B.T.W., that's a Craftsman bungalow, original windows. We got a thousand of them around here, the low-slung over-builtness of the things is very earthquake-proof. I could go on about this house.

It has what looks like some JPEG compression artifacts over to the right where the shadowy building is, but that might well be absent from the original. If it's meant to be an approximation of film grain, though, you're on the right track, and the "blooming" effect of the light definitely suggests film.
This looks very much like some of the photographs I've scanned in the past. The brightness of the white woodwork and the slight graininess on the Jaguar and the wall to the right make it more convincing that this is real film rather than digital. I think you did a good job.
