If you can afford to have a house like this it's probably not an issue to hire someone to monitor it on an ongoing basis.  Surely not kid friendly though.

Surely not kid friendly but absolutely Lab and Golden friendly.  Finding the dog would never be a problem.

A lovely idea...but in reality...impractical for most of us. Just screams "high maintenance" and another thing to take care of, with too much potential for problems. Water is pretty to look at, nice to listen to like in a waterfall, but leads to so many issues to keep clean, properly sanitized, upkept. So yea, it's a no for me. At this point in life, I'm looking to simplify not add something complicated to maintain.

 

I will say, that bedroom scene is pretty.

I find it creepy.  That long spanse of hardwood looks like a blowling alley lane.  Not for me, thank you.

On a lighter side, my obituary would read that I accidentally drowned in the bedroom 😳

Our summer place is not far from Mill Run.  I have never seen this house.  Now that I know, I might go and take a look.

 

It is interesting.

@ECBG.  I visited a house built over a rushing river about the size of the one at Falling Water but steeper with more rocks, in Colorado.  The water was so loud you couldn't  hear yourself think.  It really got on your nerves after a short while.

 

It wasn't soothing; it was annoying.

Yep, our dogs and grandchildren would love that feature in their or our house.

 

The possibilities of what they could do with it are endless.
