Don't hold me to it - but I believe this desolate house is located in the abandoned island community of Portsmouth NC. I took the photo a long time ago, and know I'm somewhere in the Outer Banks near Cape Lookout. This painting is at the Tidewater Gallery in Swansboro.
Here's the story of Portsmouth (thanks to Wikipedia).
Portsmouth was a fishing and shipping village located on the north end of the Core Banks on the Outer Banks in North Carolina. The site lies on Portsmouth Island in Carteret County, across Ocracoke Inlet from the village of Ocracoke. The town was established in 1753, and abandoned in 1971. Its remains are now part of the Cape Lookout National Seashore.
