Overview

§ 01

Brick one-story on a 5,447 sqft lot with room to spread out inside and out. Vaulted ceilings and archways open up the living and dining space, finished in tile that runs straight through from the entry. The kitchen puts the cook in the center of it all — gas range, tile backsplash, custom hardware, vented hood — with a walk-in laundry room steps away, no trips to the garage. The primary suite has a vaulted ceiling and a bath with a separate soaking tub, stand-up shower, and double vanity. Three secondary bedrooms and a full second bath round out the 1,960 sqft floor plan. A covered patio, side yard, and storage shed give you a backyard ready for your own finish-out. Built in 2006.

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.

We don't yet have the §49.452 notice for this district on file, but Texas Comptroller SB 625 financial data is available. Numbers below come from the district's annual SPDPID filing — the same dataset auditors use.
