Overview

§ 01

Build your dream lake home on this exceptional 2.64-acre waterfront lot in Mallards Cove at Lake Palestine, just outside the gated entrance while still part of the subdivision. Conveniently located only 1.5 hours from Dallas and about 3 hours from Austin and Houston, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy and accessibility. Water and sewer are provided by the Emerald Bay Country Club Municipal Utility District, eliminating the need for a septic system. Enjoy peaceful, tree-shaded lake views and the relaxing sounds of the nearby fountain, with bulkheaded shoreline already in place. Included is an impressive two-slip boathouse featuring a temperature-controlled living area, bathroom, and 7-9 feet of water depth at full pool thanks to channel dredging. The neighborhood boat ramp provides easy access for boating, fishing, and jet skiing. Just minutes from Eagles Bluff Golf & Country Club, shopping, medical facilities, South Tyler, and located in the desirable Bullard ISD.

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.
