Bev Murray Home Buying New Homes

Rising above Sarasota Bay, 1000 Boulevard of the Arts introduces a new era of downtown luxury. This 20-story waterfront condominium, developed by Kolter Urban and designed by SB Architects, combines striking modern design with Sarasota’s artistic, coastal spirit.

Here, 117 residences offer sweeping Bay and Harbor views, resort-style amenities, and a rare connection to Hyatt Centric® Harborside Sarasota. Every detail is designed for those who want more than a home — they want a lifestyle that blends art, architecture, and effortless waterfront living.

“After 25 years helping clients discover Sarasota’s finest homes, I can say this is one of the most exciting new addresses we’ve seen on the Bay. It captures everything that makes downtown Sarasota such an extraordinary place to live.”

Waterfront Location Between The Quay Sarasota And The Bay Park

Perfectly positioned between The Quay Sarasota and The Bay Park, this new residence puts you in the center of it all — dining by the water, galleries and performances, or a quiet walk through the park at sunset.

“I love how this location gives you the best of both worlds — walkable downtown living and peaceful waterfront views. You can start your morning with a run along The Bay and end it with dinner overlooking the marina — all within a few steps of home.”

This stretch of the Boulevard is fast becoming Sarasota’s most desirable cultural and residential destination, linking The Quay, Rosemary District, and the new 53-acre Bay Park expansion.

Modern Coastal Architecture Elevating Sarasota’s Skyline

With its shimmering glass façade and deep outdoor terraces, 1000 Boulevard of the Arts brings a fresh modernity to Sarasota’s skyline. The design draws inspiration from the Sarasota School of Architecture, known for open, airy forms that celebrate light and connection to nature.

Inside and out, every detail reflects the Gulf Coast lifestyle — modern, strong, and beautiful.

“Sarasota has always been a city that values design. This building honors that legacy while moving it forward — it’s light-filled, timeless, and perfectly in tune with its setting on the Bay.”

Walkable Downtown Sarasota Living With Waterfront Views

Downtown Sarasota has become one of Florida’s most walkable and desirable waterfront districts. At 1000 Boulevard of the Arts, you’re steps away from morning coffee at The Quay, a yoga class at The Bay Park, or a show at Van Wezel — all without ever getting in the car.

“For many of my clients coming from big cities, that blend of walkability and water access is what makes Sarasota so special. You don’t have to choose between urban energy and coastal calm — you get both right here.”

Luxury Sarasota Interiors Inspired By Coastal Living

Residences designed by ID & Design International bring the essence of Sarasota indoors. Spacious layouts, spa-style bathrooms, and chef-inspired kitchens with quartz countertops and custom cabinetry create a relaxed yet refined atmosphere.

Natural light pours in through floor-to-ceiling windows, framing views of the bay and beyond.

“I’ve walked clients through countless model homes over the years, and what stands out here is the balance of sophistication and ease. These interiors feel luxurious, but they’re also warm and livable — truly Sarasota in spirit.”

Bev’s long partnership with Murray Homes — Sarasota’s premier custom builder — gives her a unique perspective on evaluating finishes and floor plans — a distinct advantage for buyers exploring pre-construction opportunities.

Hyatt Centric Harborside Partnership Bringing Hotel Level Service Home

Through its unique partnership with Hyatt Centric® Harborside Sarasota, residents enjoy the best of boutique hotel living — fine dining, guest accommodations, and event spaces just steps from their front door.

“It’s such a rare combination — the privacy of your own condominium and the convenience of a luxury hotel. You can host guests, enjoy dinner by the water, or relax by the pool — all without ever leaving home.”

Kolter Urban And SB Architects Shaping Sarasota’s Waterfront Future

With landmark projects like VUE Sarasota Bay, Bayso, and The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Kolter Urban continues to set the standard for Sarasota luxury living. Partnering with the award-winning SB Architects and ID & Design International, the team has created a residence that balances beauty, strength, and a sense of place.

“Kolter has been behind many of Sarasota’s most beloved new buildings. 1000 Boulevard of the Arts feels like the natural next step — refined, forward-thinking, and distinctly Sarasota.”

Sarasota Waterfront Real Estate Offering Long Term Value

Downtown Sarasota remains one of Florida’s strongest real estate markets — where walkability, water access, and culture come together. Properties like 1000 Boulevard of the Arts hold exceptional long-term value, appealing to both full-time residents and investors.

“In my experience, waterfront condos in walkable areas consistently outperform the broader market. It’s a lifestyle people want — and Sarasota continues to deliver it beautifully.”
