Indian Beach Waterfront Modern

Set on a rare 2-acre wooded waterfront lot overlooking downtown Sarasota and the Ringling Bridge, this new custom luxury estate by Murray Homes will showcase Sarasota School of Architecture design. Spanning 7,614 sq. ft. of living space (11,061 sq. ft. total), the two-story residence will feature 6 bedrooms, 7.5 baths, a 5-car garage, expansive open-plan living, covered decks, a striking pool, and a dramatic driveway over a koi pond. Breaking ground Fall 2025.


Indian Beach–Sapphire Shores is one of Sarasota’s most historic and culturally rich neighborhoods, located just north of downtown and adjacent to the Ringling Museum and Ca’ d’Zan. Known for its tree-lined streets, eclectic architecture, and sweeping bayfront views, the area blends Sarasota School of Architecture homes with Mediterranean Revival and mid-century designs. A modern design in this neighborhood takes full advantage of the natural setting—framing treetop vistas and Sarasota Bay views—while maintaining the walkable charm and cultural appeal that make the community so distinctive.

The right and left elevations at the motor court highlight the clean geometry and balanced proportions of the home’s modern design. Streamlined forms, paired with expansive windows, bring natural light into the interiors while maintaining a cohesive architectural rhythm across the façade.

The first floor is designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, anchored by a spacious great room that opens to multiple covered lanais and the pool. A private master suite with spa bath, guest bedroom, morning room, and expansive kitchen create a functional flow for both daily life and entertaining. Dual garages, connected by a breezeway, provide ample storage and convenience while maintaining the home’s balanced layout.
