Renting a house with a pool for the weekend is all well and good, but what if you want to make a splash and own the pool yourself?

That's what you'd get if you bought this $8 million tidal wave of a mansion in Mockingbird Valley — not to mention an elevator + murals by Louisville artist Claire Hirn. It's currently the most expensive house on the market in Derby City, and it's not hard to see why.

The Georgian-style house was designed by William T. Baker, a residential designer based in Atlanta, and built in 2006.

Here's a sampling of what else the home has to offer:

16,000 sqft, including five bedrooms, seven full baths, and two half-baths
A curved grand staircase inside the foyer
A butler's kitchen connecting the dining room and kitchen
A three-car garage

Then of course, there's the pool, set back from the house and adorned with three frog statues. Let's be honest: It's not worth $8 million without them.
