What should I know about 409 Hidden Pass, Royse City, TX?
>
Match strength: Confirmed
**About this home:**This is a fully remodeled 5-bedroom custom estate on 2.38 private acres in the High Point Ranch community of Royse City. The home sits in Rockwall County, which is notable for buyers who care about county-level tax and service distinctions. At 4,043 square feet, it's nearly double the average single-family home size in the Royse City area. The property includes a private in-ground pool, a 30x50 insulated shop with two 12-foot bay doors, an oversized 6-car garage, and a screened porch — a combination that's uncommon at any price point in this market. The home was remodeled down to the studs, so buyers are getting updated finishes throughout rather than a dated original build.

409 Hidden Pass Royse City price and neighborhood comparison
>
Match strength: Strong Fit
**Value context:**At $1,100,000, this home sits well above the Royse City market median — and the gap is easy to explain. The area's median single-family sale price is around $358,990, and the average home size is approximately 2,174 square feet. This property is nearly twice that size at 4,043 square feet, sits on 2.38 acres versus a typical lot of around 7,405 square feet (roughly 0.17 acres), and includes a pool, a 30x50 shop, and a 6-car garage. The price per square foot implied by the list price is roughly $272, compared to the Royse City area average of $172 per square foot — a premium that reflects the acreage, the shop, the pool, and the full remodel. Buyers should verify current comparable sales with their agent, as this page provides neighborhood context rather than a formal appraisal or CMA.
**Facts supporting this context:**
List price: $1,100,000 / 4,043 sq ft
Royse City median single-family sale price: $358,990
Royse City average single-family home size: ~2,174 sq ft
Royse City median lot size: ~7,405 sq ft (this lot: 103,673 sq ft / 2.38 acres)
Royse City average price per sq ft: $172
Pool, 30x50 shop, 6-car garage, and full remodel differentiate this property from typical area inventory

What should I know about 409 Hidden Pass before touring or making an offer?
>
Match strength: Strong Fit
**What to verify:**This property has a lot of moving parts that buyers should confirm before going under contract. The shop is described as plumbed for a future kitchen and bath, which means that conversion to a guest house or ADU is not yet complete — buyers should verify what permits, utility connections, and local zoning would be required to finish that build-out. The home runs on propane and a septic system, which are standard for acreage properties in this area but worth understanding before closing. The HOA fee is low at $345 annually, but buyers should confirm what it covers and any deed restrictions. Taxes were reported at $15,465, which buyers should verify with the county for the current year. The home also has a security system (owned), zoned HVAC, and a tankless water heater — all worth confirming during inspection.
**Facts supporting this context:**
Septic system / propane utilities — not city sewer or natural gas
HOA: $345/year — verify coverage and deed restrictions
Reported tax amount: $15,465 — verify with Rockwall County
Shop plumbed for future kitchen/bath — conversion not complete; verify permitting
Security system (owned), zoned HVAC, tankless water heater

The 6-car garage adds even more covered storage and parking. For buyers who need acreage, a pool, and serious infrastructure for vehicles, equipment, or a home business, this property checks all three boxes at once, which is uncommon in this price range.

5-bedroom custom home with downstairs primary suite in Royse City
>
Match strength: Confirmed
**Why it matches:**The floor plan at 409 Hidden Pass is built for a household that needs both everyday convenience and room to grow. The primary suite is on the main floor, which is a strong draw for buyers who want to avoid stairs daily. Four additional bedrooms are upstairs, along with two full baths, a flex room, and an office — giving the upper level real flexibility for kids, guests, or a dedicated workspace. The floor plan also shows a family room, sitting room, screened porch, mudroom, and laundry room on the first floor, making the main level highly functional beyond just the primary suite.
**Facts supporting this match:**

>
Match strength: Strong Fit
**Why it matches:**The upper level of this home includes a dedicated game and media room with a wet bar — a setup that works well for households that entertain regularly or want a separate space for movies, gaming, or watching sports. The wet bar keeps the entertainment floor self-contained, so guests don't need to come downstairs for drinks. Combined with the outdoor pool, pergola, and BBQ area, this home has multiple distinct entertaining zones across both floors and the backyard.
**Facts supporting this match:**
Game and media room with wet bar — approved pills (description-supported)

Remodeled custom estate in High Point Ranch Royse City
>
Match strength: Confirmed
**Why it matches:**409 Hidden Pass is not a standard production build. The home was remodeled down to the studs, meaning buyers are getting updated finishes throughout a 2013 custom build rather than a dated original interior. Photos confirm wood-look flooring in the main living areas, a screened porch with painted brick accent wall and French doors, updated bathrooms with white shaker cabinetry and tile showers, and a bright, open living room with crown molding and natural light. The exterior shows a traditional brick elevation with arched windows, a curved driveway, and mature landscaping on a large open lot. The High Point Ranch community is a lower-density acreage neighborhood, which gives this property a private, estate-like setting.

409 Hidden Pass pros and tradeoffs
>
Match strength: Strong Fit
**About this match:**The strengths here are clear: a fully remodeled 5-bedroom home on 2.38 private acres with a pool, a massive shop, a 6-car garage, a downstairs primary suite, and a game room with wet bar — all in a low-density acreage community in Rockwall County. The price is well above the Royse City market median, but the property is in a different category from typical area inventory. The tradeoffs worth knowing: the home runs on propane and septic, which require more owner management than city utilities. The shop's future kitchen and bath are plumbed but not finished, so buyers who want a guest house or ADU will need to budget for that build-out and verify local permitting. The area's walkability score is low (20/100), so this is a car-dependent lifestyle — which fits the acreage setting but is worth knowing. I-30 provides the primary route toward Dallas, and buyers who commute should factor in drive times independently.
**Facts supporting this context:**
Propane and septic — not city sewer or natural gas
Shop plumbed for future kitchen/bath — not a finished guest house
Walkability score: 20/100 (car-dependent area)
HOA: $345/year — low but verify restrictions
Royse City median sale price: $344,990 — this home is priced at $1,100,000
I-30 is the primary route toward Dallas (~30 miles)

Royse City home with tornado shelter, security system, and propane
>
Match strength: Strong Fit

The home runs on propane rather than natural gas, which is standard for acreage properties in this area and supports the built-in gas range, gas oven, and gas fireplace starter. The tankless water heater and zoned HVAC system are additional infrastructure upgrades worth noting. Buyers should confirm the condition and age of all systems during inspection.

3. Exemptions That Lower Taxable Value
Exemptions and CAD reductions can lower the taxable value used to estimate property taxes. A common example is a homestead exemption for an owner-occupied home. Some properties may also have agricultural or special-use valuation, where part of the land is taxed differently than land valued for development. Not every taxing entity applies the same exemption or reduction.
Homestead ExemptionCAD: HS - Homestead
The current CAD record shows a homestead exemption.
A buyer’s future exemptions, taxable value, and tax bill may differ.

For tax planning, buyers should confirm future taxable value, exemptions, and special-use treatment with the appraisal district, tax office, lender, CPA, or other qualified advisor.
