Riddle House or the Shrieking Shack or anyplace we know. That would
be consistant with her style and logically it is a big world out
there and we have indeed been shown so little of it that it would
also make sense that this, for good or ill is an entirely new place.

Oh, that's entirely possibly. This is just my speculation. Mostly
it seems to me, as someone else pointed out, that this building fits
the description of the Riddle House perfectly. Also, this is a place
we've heard of but that Harry hasn't actually been to yet (unless you
count his dream). It also seems to fit exactly with Rowling's style
to me--introduce something as background element in one book, only to
have it play a more prominent role in one of the future books. And
up until now, I've not heard any speculate that Harry would go to the
Riddle house (as opposed to the usual suspects--Azkaban, St. Mungo's,
etc). So if it weren't for this shot of the cover, I would have
never even guessed the Riddle House and it would come as quite as
surprise.
