Murray Homes September 2026 Soundbites

September brings a fresh season of inspired design and craftsmanship at Murray Homes. Across Sarasota and the barrier islands, our teams are creating exceptional custom residences, transforming existing homes and developing personalized interiors designed around the way our clients live. Beyond the jobsite, we’re also celebrating custom cabinetry and an exciting weekend at the racetrack.

Here’s a glimpse at what’s happening across the Murray Homes family.

Custom Home Spotlight

A newly built condominium is being transformed into a sophisticated forever home filled with personality and character. Carefully curated materials, distinctive modern finishes and custom details will bring an elevated sense of individuality to every room. A stylish dry bar, dining room with a custom wine display and dedicated theater create thoughtfully designated spaces for hosting, gathering and relaxing with family and friends.

Coming Soon – Coastal Cottage Revival

Smaller Footprint, Bigger Possibilities

Sarasota | Coastal Transitional Beach Cottage

1,422 sq. ft. | 3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms

Following hurricane damage, this coastal cottage will be thoughtfully reimagined to maximize function, comfort and entertaining within its smaller footprint.
