Overview

§ 01

A sophisticated showplace in Shepherd Park Plaza, a beautiful, deed-restricted neighborhood just north of Garden Oaks. Taken to the studs in 2019, this exceptional residence was reimagined with custom finishes and thoughtful design for elevated everyday living. The chef’s kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area and features an impressive oversized island. The primary suite is privately positioned downstairs, while three spacious bedrooms, a study nook, and Jack & Jill bath are upstairs. A versatile room near the garage opens to the pool and has served as a gym and a mother-in-law suite. Custom built-ins conceal an oversized utility room with sink and extra refrigerator. Set on a 10,000 SF corner lot, the property offers a 3-car driveway and 2-car garage with finished walls and mini-split A/C. The resort-style backyard is designed for entertaining, featuring a pool and spa, fire pit, pergola, ice maker, Evo grill, jasmine-covered fence, turf and recently installed generator.

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.
