Overview

§ 01

Historic Third Ward Estate in the Exclusive Riverside Terrace subdivision is Coming Soon to the for sale market. Built in 1956 by Mid Century Modern architect Joseph Krakower, this unique and exquisite home is perched atop a soft hill on the renowned Parkwood Circle, across from a beautiful lush park and with a half acre of land in back, the home feels private yet alive as it is only minutes from Hermann Park, University of Houston, and the Medical Center. All the original finishes and features remain which will need tender care to restore this home to its original magnificent state.

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.
