2. How can we think it was the Avada curse which Voldemort did against
Harry & Parents, when it also destroyed the house, whereas on the other
occasions when it's been done (to the Riddles & to the spider) it didn't
cause any damage to the surrounding stuff?

My opinion is that the damage to the Potter house was due to either
(a) Voldemort trying to get to the Potters (i.e. a "Let me in or I'll
blow your house down" sort of thing) or (b) the curse backfiring on
Voldemort. Not only did it cause Voldemort to disappear, but it also
destroyed the house, perhaps because of the power behind it?
