Overview

§ 01

Welcome to your own slice of coastal magic in Crystal Beach, where whimsy meets waterfront! This lot isn’t just a piece of land—it’s a front-row seat to sunrises, sea breezes, & spontaneous adventures. Perched along the water’s edge, it comes complete with a private boat dock, ready for your next fishing tale or sunset cruise. Climb up to the elevated deck and you’ll feel like the captain of your own ship, surrounded by water views that stretch in every direction. Down below, a charming patio invites you to kick back with a cold drink & a good story, while the real showstopper—a delightfully quirky school bus turned RV—adds a splash of personality & a whole lot of fun. Whether you see it as a weekend hideaway, a creative guest suite, or the ultimate conversation starter, it’s ready to roll (figuratively, of course - connected to water & sewer). Play, relax, or just soak in the salty air—this is Crystal Beach living with a twist of the unexpected.

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.
