Overview

§ 01

An artful expression of architectural character and thoughtful design, this Royal Oaks residence has been extensively reimagined by T. Hobson Homes. Exposed beam detailing, soffit lighting, & bronze gutters frame the exterior. Inside, handcrafted white oak cabinetry, and curated designer lighting establish a rich, cohesive palette. The kitchen pairs Taj Mahal quartzite w/ a sculptural hand-plastered hood, and Gordon Ramsay Edition appliance package anchored by a 48-inch gas range. A game room, mudroom, and home office with custom wainscoting balance beauty with purpose. The LED-lit dining bar, statement fireplace, & three-panel sliding doors opening to a covered patio with beadboard ceiling tie it all together. The primary retreat features white oak beams, bedside pendants, a private bar, & spa-inspired bath w/ concealed medicine-cabinet mirrors, floor-to-ceiling tile, & an expansive closet. Replaced MEP, roof, & enhanced sound separation between bedrooms bring substance to the style.

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.
