Overview

§ 01

Welcome to 8226 Schaffer Lane, a charming one-story, 4-bedroom home on an oversized 13,417 sq. ft. lot in Prestonwood Forest. A new 2025 roof, engineered wood floors, and a spacious family room with soaring ceilings, wood beams, and a cozy corner fireplace feel inviting. The updated kitchen features granite counters, tile-and-glass backsplash, stainless appliances, gas cooktop, and abundant storage. The former dining room is now an oversized walk-in pantry. The remodeled primary bath offers a large walk-in shower with dual shower heads, frameless glass, and soft-close cabinetry. Part of the garage has been converted into a climate-controlled flex room with a mini-split—ideal for an office, game room, gym, or hobby space—while retaining 1-car garage parking and extra driveway parking. Enjoy the huge covered patio and spacious backyard. Prestonwood Forest offers two community pools, tennis courts, and a clubhouse. Zoned to Cy-Fair ISD with shopping, dining, and medical facilities nearby.

● 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.
