see?
yes, but there's a trick that tons of developers use to create the illusion of 3d geometry outside of an area's level boundaries by using a combination of 2D textures to simulate 3D. Lots of games use it, but here's a nice example of giving a view of the outside world from inside the home of the simpsons in the hit & run game: https://youtu.be/4y07g7N2ROo?t=328

For our homes, it wouldn't be too much different. Create a window, attach a bunch of 2D textures right outside of it to give the simulation that there's a 3D environment past it, done. There'd have to be some limits like you can't place two windows near each other less they cause texture clipping, but it's an entirely feasible thing to do.
