Has anyone else noticed that inside of the house, makes no sense in comparison to the outside? Like the attic is way too big, and the window in the attic, faces the front of the house… but the external architecture doesn’t match up with it. The house is 2 stories, and there’s no room for a large attic with large windows.

I have noticed that. I believe (could be wrong) the unaired pilot used the actual real house interior, but (for whatever reason) the show decided to use a different interior after swapping (well, Rom quit, and they scrambled for a replacement, but that's not the point) out Rom for Milano (to play Phoebe) along with other changes (like a different Andy, as well).

Well, who knows? Maybe at some point in the past, someone - or multiple someones, working together - cast a spell on the exterior of the house, so as to not have to explain any magical rearranging of things (or architecture) inside the manor, and keep anyone from noticing all the damage inflicted by the forces of evil. Heck, in that episode with the witch doctors, nobody seemed to notice when Piper made the house vanish (and it couldn’t have been that late, if Paige went straight there from her aborted wedding), or in “Morality Bites” when Prue demolished the attic and blew out the wall - and with the witch hysteria going on at the time, their neighbors wouldn’t likely have just ignored it.

Yeah, so many times logic went out the window, and so many times magic got exposed, that I just can't believe they weren't exposed. The only thing I can think of is if there was a magical barrier/spell around the manor. So anybody who is non-magical would just see the regular house, whenever something happens to the manor, they don't see any demon attacks or hear it or damage (Didn't Rex in Wicca Envy use some Illusion spell to make Phoebe see an flashy apartment when in reality it was empty), unless you are inside the manor itself. Making them imperceptible to the eye. If someone else can think of another way to get around the logic of how nobody would hear or notice what happened to the manor, I'd love to hear it. |

So, this may be the one time we can say, with total sincerity, “a wizard did it.” 😉 |

I like the idea of there being some kind of spell on the house where their magic goes undetected. With all the vanquishings going on there, the neighbors would definitely be calling the police all the time.
The interior of their house also seems huge. The attic seems like it has as much floor space as the first and second floors. They could have an entire apartment up there and still have half the space for magic things. It was funny to me when Cole was trying to convince Phoebe that the house was too crowded, because that place is giant.
