Overview

§ 01

In the heart of the Houston Heights, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a game/flex room offers 2,689 square feet designed for easy living and effortless hosting. High ceilings, engineered wood floors, crown molding, and a gas-log fireplace bring warmth and character, while the UPDATED chef’s kitchen—granite counters, stainless appliances, and a spacious island—keeps everyone connected. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with two walk-in closets and a generous bath. Step outside to a covered patio, balcony, and low-maintenance turfed yard—perfect for coffee, pets, or simply reclaiming your weekends. A two-car garage, dedicated driveway parking, and a whole-house generator add the peace of mind you’ll appreciate year-round. Tucked just minutes from Yale and the 610 Loop, you’ll love the quick access to Heights favorites, parks, trails, and downtown—where convenience meets the lifestyle you’ve been looking for.

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.
