Overview

§ 01

This 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath townhome is tucked away yet has great access to prime Houston locations. Move-in ready and located in a secure gated neighborhood, it offers style, comfort, and convenience. Inside, high ceilings and oversized windows let in plenty of natural light, while hardwood floors and a cozy fireplace give warmth and character. The kitchen is both functional and stylish, with stainless steel appliances, natural lighting, an arched passthrough window, and a new stove. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite has fresh paint and plenty of storage space, while the secondary bedroom—complete with an improved ceiling fan—is ideal for a guest room or home office including a full bath.

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.
