Overview

§ 01

Open, connected living and generous outdoor spaces define this 3 bedroom, 2 bath Oak Forest home. A spacious living room flows into the kitchen and breakfast area, offering room to gather and a functional layout for everyday routines. A separate front dining area adds flexibility, while wood floors and shuttered windows bring warmth and character. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar and ample cabinetry. Outside, a large rear deck and patio create room for dining and entertaining, with views across the distinctive backyard setting. Attractive front and back yards with irrigation offer space to relax, play and garden. A substantially redone 2 car driveway, carport and 1 car garage provide convenient parking and storage.

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.
