Overview

§ 01

Sold fully furnished, with bookings on the calendar and ready the day you close.

Built in 2022 by a family that has built on Bolivar Peninsula for more than 20 years: 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, sleeps 14 in 1,320 well-planned square feet, on round pilings with 2x6 walls, engineered beyond coastal code. The open living and kitchen stays bright all day — granite counters, stainless appliances, an island seating 10, a dinette. Two king rooms lock together into a private ensuite suite, and one opens onto its own deck. Two bunk rooms sleep 10 more, plus a second full bath and full-size washer and dryer. Outside is where this house earns its living: a large fenced yard with a play set, a covered deck, and downstairs a gathering area with garage, charcoal grill, enclosed outdoor shower, and a bar over the fence line so parents can watch the kids. Sleeps 14. Seats 36. Parking for 8. No HOA dues. Gregory Park is 2 houses down, beach access about 5 blocks, and the cul-de-sac keeps the street quiet.

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.
