Overview

§ 01

Waterfront living takes center stage at this east-facing Bayou Vista home. Enjoy a boathouse with lift and party deck, stamped concrete and covered patios, rare indoor service elevator, garage, and attached 3-car covered carport with room for a golf cart, boat trailer, and guests. Inside, open-concept living is filled with natural light. The flexible third bedroom can serve as an office or study, while the enclosed downstairs flex room with full bath works as a game room, media room, hobby space, or guest overflow. Spend your days boating, fishing, crabbing, entertaining, or relaxing by the water. The primary bath and main A/C were updated in 2025, and the downstairs flex room has its own recently replaced split A/C. Washer, dryer, and both refrigerators stay. Bulkhead replaced in 2017. According to the current insurance agent, the lower-level flex space may be insurable based on the home’s pre-FIRM status. Make it your weekend getaway, vacation home, or full-time coastal retreat.

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.
