    Roughly, any of the following:

    1. You live in a nice place.
    2. You have a nice home.
    3. Your home is nicely arranged.
    4. Nice place!

    As you see, it pertains (chiefly) to the place where one resides, but it could be extended as well to compliment a person place of work, e.g., "you have a nice office", "I like your office", etc.

It’s American English used to describe a nice place where someone is living - usually in connection with renting a room or a place. In British English, this is archaic and something my grandparents might have used regularly.

A ”dig” could also mean, both in contemporary British and American English something that is said to annoy, upset or heavily tease someone. In this case ”sweet pretty digs” might also mean things said sweetly in a pretty voice which is intended to tease, annoy or make someone upset.

For a British English speaker, this would be the intended meaning.
