Overview

§ 01

Live in the heart of the Heights, one of Houston's most walkable, social, and sought-after inside-the-loop neighborhoods. Steps from the best restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and trails in the city, with downtown just minutes away. This 3-bed, 3-bath gated townhome gives you the lifestyle without sacrificing the space. Hand-scraped hardwoods run all three floors, and the open two-story living and dining area is built for entertaining. The kitchen features granite counters and stainless appliances with a balcony right off it with a gas line for easy grilling. The top-floor primary suite is a full retreat with dual closets, spa bath, and a loft/study overlooking the living area below. First-floor bedroom has its own bath and sitting or workout space, perfect for a guest or roommate setup. Private back patio rounds it out. Gated community, smart layout, premium finishes, and an address that puts the best of the Heights at your front door. This is urban living done right.

MUD Disclosure (§49.452)

§ 03 · Data moat
● §49.452 Notice
Not in archive
This MUD is not yet in our §49.452 archive. We'll add it on request.

Texas Water Code §49.452 requires districts to publish annual notices with tax rate, bonded indebtedness, and assessed value. Most Harris-area MUDs publish these; a handful managed by Inframark do not.

Request this notice
● What this tells you

The §49.452 notice is the only public document that lists a MUD's exact tax rate, outstanding bond debt, and the assessed value used to compute your taxes — direct from the district, not the MLS. If the district is newer or has more bonds outstanding than its neighbors, your effective tax rate will be higher here than just across the street.
