I´d say Imagery. The Words describe the setting with full detail. If that´s not it, please let me know. 
Hope this helps :-)
For better help just research the meaning of each choice and see which one relates best to the story.

Answer: D) Imagery.

Explanation: Imagery is a literary device that consists in the use of figurative language or detailed descriptions in order to evoke the senses of the reader (sight, hearing, taste, smell, or touch) and to create a mental picture. In the given excerpt, we can see an example of the use of imagery in the way that the speaker is describing the house, we can see that it evoke the sense of sight of the reader.
