Commentary
I've not been able to determine where or what Dia Gia Hong is, but this might be the Jones's cottage in the hills across from Chongqing, which is white painted stucco. This cottage was built in 1924, but Clara's dress is consistent with styles in the mid to late teens, so neither the time nor place can be positively determined.
