Overview

§ 01

Some homes give you a water view. This one gives you a water view and a pool to enjoy it from. Set on a lake lot in Martha's Vineyard, this one-story upgraded CastleRock home was designed to make the most of it — floor-to-ceiling windows line the main living space, framing the heated pool, spa, and water beyond from nearly every angle. Morning coffee on the covered patio, afternoons in the pool, evenings on the patio — this is what the backyard was built for.

Inside, high ceilings and a rotunda entry set the tone the moment you walk in. The open-concept kitchen features granite countertops, oversized cabinets, and a large walk-in pantry, flowing straight into the main living area so you're never far from the view. A private home office with French doors offers a quiet space to work. The primary suite is its own retreat, with a spa-like bath and walk-in closet.

Built in 2021, this home pairs newer construction with a setting that's hard to find twice.

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.
