Synomyms?

I 'd like to find synonyms for "taken as granted", when something has grown so familiar you don't even notice it anymore...
There must be something with "part of..." (the scenery?), or "it goes with...?..."
Thanks for your ideas!

You mean taken for granted? Nothing jumps to mind, but I'm no good with synonyms......

Yes, of course,sorry!
Isn't there something like "it goes with the grounds" or ... ?

do you mean 'it comes with the territory'? (I don't think that is really a synonym for 'to take for granted' though)

Not quite, but it sounds good for my purpose...

Maybe some other ideas? [:^)]

I came across sth you might be looking for in the following context:

She had seen the scars so many times that she had almost BLOCKED them OUT? (got used to them)

Thanks, Antonia, but here I need something that includes, not the contrary.
For example, if you buy an old castle, it's quite normal that you buy ghosts at the same time.
They're taken for granted", "they go with the territory".

How about a cultural assumption? Does that work? It's exactly what we do --- it's so "taken for granted" that it becomes our cultural assumption....Not sure of your context.]
