Yep that's exactly my setup. I don't even leave the house I have the printer in a closet and can peek at it from time to time while watching tv. I added an LED strip I can turn on/off from octoprint as a light for the camera. One thing I really like is just being able to look at the first couple layers just before I hit print so I really know I've got the right file loaded.
There's a plugin that will visualize the entire print in 3D, and can also sync with the print. It's fantastic. I don't remember what it's called now, but if you search for "Gcode visualizer" there can't be that many.
GCode Viewer is included with OctoPrint, it lets you preview the loaded GCode layer by layer before/while printing, and can sync to the print in realtime too.
