Halliwell Manor

The Halliwell Manor is the home of the Halliwell family, and has been passed down throughout the family for many generations. It is currently the home of Piper Halliwell and Leo Wyatt, as well as their children, Wyatt, Chris, and Melinda Halliwell.

After Wyatt's marriage to Prue, she moved into the Manor with Wyatt. After Piper wanted to open a chain of P3 in New Orleans, she and Leo moved to the French Quarter. After marrying Bianca, Chris moved to Prue's old Condo and stayed there after he returned from his book tour. Ever since, Prue, Wyatt, and Melinda have lived in the Manor together.

History
Halliwell Manor is a Victorian style manor located at 1329 Prescott Street, San Francisco. The original structure was built in 1898 and was rebuilt in 1906. The manor has been in The Warren Line for five generations, the first generation being Gordon Johnson and his wife P. Baxter. The Halliwell Manor was built on a Spiritual Nexus and has been the seat of power for The Charmed Ones since their awakening in 1998.

The Nexus
Since the Halliwell Manor is exactly situated at the center of five essential life elements (fire, water, earth, wood, and metal), it is located on top of a Spiritual Nexus. These five essential life elements are the San Francisco Bay (Water), the Potrero Natural Hot Springs (Fire), Kenwood Park (Wood), The Twin Peaks (Earth) and Mountain Lake Park (Metal).

When connected, these five points form a pentagram with the manor in the center, making it not only a spiritual nexus, but a strong Wiccan symbol.

The Nexus is a neutral source of power that could be accessed by good and evil. The Charmed Ones' great-grandparents bought the area and built the manor over the Nexus to prevent it from falling into the hands of evil. As forces of good were in control of the manor, the Nexus was described as providing an extra boost of power to the sisters and generations to come. For this reason, good would always go on as long as the sisters were in control of the manor.

However, if the manor is overtaken by evil, it would gain control over the Nexus and evil would spread. As the Nexus is a neutral force, those born on top the Nexus are more easily swayed by the forces of good and evil. For this reason in the Dark Future, when Wyatt Halliwell was born in the Mansion and kidnapped by Gideon, he turned evil. Luckily, when Chris went back in time he managed to fix this future, and Wyatt stayed good.

Bedrooms
The Halliwell Manor has three bedrooms in the house, the master bedroom and two smaller rooms.

Master Bedroom
The master bedroom was initially used by Penny Halliwell until she moved out of the manor. It was used by Patty Halliwell and Victor Bennett, until their divorce and Patty's death. Victor then left, and at this point, Penny moved back in to take care of her granddaughters. After Penny's death, Prudence moved into the master bedroom until Piper and Leo got married. Prudence moved out of the bedroom to let the newlyweds have the bigger room, since two people would be living in it now. Since Leo and Piper have moved out of the Manor, it is unknown if Prue and Wyatt have moved into the room or not.

Second Bedroom
This bedroom was initially used by Piper until she switched rooms with Prudence after getting married and Leo moved in. Prue then used this room until her tragic and untimely death. The room was then empty for a while until Paige moved into the manor. After Paige moved in with Henry, it was Wyatt who used this room. This stayed Wyatt's room throughout his childhood and into his adult life, and is possibly the bedroom that he stays in now.

The Attic
The attic of the manor is located on the third floor and can be accessed through a stairway on the Second Floor. It is a large space that takes up nearly the entire third floor. Aside from being a basic attic used for storage, the attic was the place where the cherished and powerful Book of Shadows was kept by the original Charmed Ones and earlier, Penny Halliwell. After taking over the demon-fighting, the Destined Ones have kept the Book in the attic to follow tradition. The book is filled with potions, spell-books, fairy-tales, and more magical knowledge.

As the sisters grew up in the manor unaware of their heritage, the attic was kept locked by Penny at all times while she told her granddaughters that it was sealed off completely. The door was unlocked the night Phoebe went there after the Spirit Board had given her the word "Attic" as a message.

The Kitchen
The kitchen of the manor was a large and bright-colored room with an entrance to the dining room, the basement, and the laundry room. Like any household, the sisters spent a lot of time in the kitchen for regular daily activities and conversations. Additionally, the sisters kept several potion ingredients in the kitchen, and often brewed potions when the potion required to be prepared on the stove. As a chef and most skilled potion maker, Piper spent the most time in the kitchen, aside from Penelope.
