Updated corner beach home in the popular Ramada beachside neighborhood! This 3 bed, 2.5 bath beauty surprises by how big it is inside (bigger than it appears outside), offers Gulf views and is just steps from the sand.

Enjoy Gulf breezes from the spacious deck or gather below for outdoor fun. After fun in the sun on the beach, just steps away, rinse off in the outdoor shower and relax while watching turtles, otters, birds and cranes in the canal. The primary suite includes a private office area, walk-in closet, and spa-like bath with separate tub and shower. Two staircases and dual upstairs entrances provide easy access. Fenced yard section, abundant additional covered storage in garage and bonus interior storage room. Fully furnished. Must see to appreciate!

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.
