Yes, that is what is supposed to happen, but in this case I think they really made a point of doing the absolute bare minimum required to install this one....
They built a building in front of it that looks pretty close to a normal house for all the support equipment. Thry probably didn't need to do that.
Actually I'm pretty sure they did have to do that in order to build it in this neighborhood. Also, they didn't build this house, it was already there.
Woosh
I'm pretty sure it wasn't a woosh. It's really common to build "fake" buildings to hide equipment. The OP says it already existed, but all the windows look like typical hidden building fake windows. There's a wall behind all of them. You can find these buildings all over, hiding things like electric substations, oil jacks, subway infrastructure, and all kinds of other things.
We've got a few in that style where I live, and they are all among redwood trees. Ours are modeled after blue spruce, which doesn't grow around here and in the middle of a bunch of warm/yellow green redwoods, they look like cookie monsters with antennae.
