Overview

§ 01

This is not a flip but work done by owners while living here for last 6 years so pride of ownership prevails. Classic 50's Oak Forest gem remodeled while keeping the vintage charm. Gotta have the old oak in the front yard with double wide driveway and the welcoming front entry opens to the generous living and dining combination with remodeled kitchen adjacent. Want features like wood flooring, gas cooking, pot filler replaced windows, tankless water heater, large lot (8760 sqft/HCAD), crown molding, ceiling fans and how about past era secondary bath? It's all here. The master wing is where the addition is with huge closet (with laundry) and bath you won't want to leave since all your friends can fit in the shower! Approx 225 ft back patio accessible from the kitchen and master bed. Plenty of room for a pool, trampoline, basketball ct and there's already an outdoor shower and a approx 160 ft storage shed. Thank you for your consideration of this lovely home NOT in flood plain!

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.
