People who attach wind turbines to their houses quickly tire of the vibration.
Depends on how you do it. Bracket a mast to a flat wall and it turns into a drumhead.

A vertical axis windmill at the summit of an hemisphere would vibrate in the plane of the structure instead of at right angles to it.

Then follow Julian Edgar's instruction on Tuned Mass Dampers.
