Overview

§ 01

Worth waiting for - seller says let's sell. The Chelsea is beachfront on Beach Dr. It has easy access to the beach in front of Thunder Rd and Jettyview as well as to the Jetties. Surfers and fisher-people love this area as well as families. This has been a popular rental with great reviews. The stairs are to the rear of the home. From the back deck, you will enter the home with the kitchen to the left, a dining area and living room to the front and the beachfront deck. Two the right are two bedrooms with a shared bathroom, and to the front left is the master bedroom with views of the Gulf and a private bathroom. This location is great! The home has been remodeled and beautifully maintained. This home is a rental and the new owners will be required to honor current reservations. Hurry to see the Chelsea. The name means a ship's port. Perfect to watch the Gulf and the ships going in an out of the Port of Freeport.

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.
