Overview

§ 01

Mediterranean custom build begins with a grandiose foyer with a winding staircase setting the tone for a home where scale & craftsmanship take center stage. Offset travertine & wood floors stretch beneath DBL crown molding, tall-profile skirting & tray ceilings glowing w/recessed lighting. Chefs island kitchen is a showstopper complete w/quartzite counters & a butler's pantry that makes hosting simple. Formal dining room & home office round out the main level while the enormous primary suite pampers with expansive closets built for a serious wardrobe. Zero-grid picture windows frame panoramic lake views from nearly every angle. Upstairs, a spacious landing connects a game room, media room, and two exterior balconies. An ENSUITE retreat plus Jack and Jill, with a bonus bedroom & storage room to spare. Fire up the outdoor kitchen, gather around the fireplace, & let the pool-sized yard fuel your grandest backyard dreams. Your own boat house means the lake is always just a step away.

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.
