This was PI Hank Dolworth's house in Ocean Beach, San Diego, after he bought it from his ex-wife, in FX's underrated crime drama Terriers. Too bad it didn't last more than one season, although the name and the poster that made it look like a reality show about dogs probably didn't do their ratings any favors.
