Overlooking the tranquil waters of Echo Lake, 2267 Echo Trl NE is a rare offering in one of Decatur’s most exclusive neighborhoods. Listed at $4,500,000, this 1.07-acre estate blends classic architecture with modern luxury, featuring six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and an impressive 222 feet of private lake frontage. Built in 2014, the residence stands as a testament to craftsmanship, location, and lifestyle.
Beyond the double glass entry doors, a soaring two-story great room frames sweeping views of the lake and surrounding treetops. Coffered ceilings, hardwood floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows create a luminous, open atmosphere. The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with Viking Professional Series appliances, double wall ovens, an 8-burner gas cooktop with pot filler, and a generous island for casual dining. Nearby, the formal dining room draws the eye with its bold black-and-white checkered floor and dramatic chandelier.

“The owner is a discerning entrepreneur who envisioned a residence that feels both opulent and inviting,” Tiffany Powell of Serhant Georgia told Luxury Houses Magazine. “Every design decision—from stained glass details to the Juliet balcony—was made with purpose.”
The primary suite spans an extraordinary 1,500 square feet, offering its own living room and fireplace, a wet bar, dual powder rooms, multiple walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with separate garden tub. A Juliet balcony invites peaceful moments overlooking the water.

Throughout the home, four fireplaces—including two on the main level, one in the primary suite, and one on the terrace level—enhance the sense of warmth. The fully finished terrace level features a home theater, wet bar, spacious entertainment area, and a guest suite, all with direct access to the landscaped backyard and Echo Lake shoreline.

Living at 2267 Echo Trl NE means enjoying the unique lifestyle of Echo Lake, a private 18-acre lake known for its scenic beauty and active homeowners association.

“Echo Lake delivers the perfect balance between nature and accessibility,” Powell told Luxury Houses. “It’s a combination that’s hard to find in Georgia Real Estate.”
The property last sold in September 2014 for $2,475,000, and its current $4.5 million listing reflects steady appreciation in Atlanta Real Estate. Waterfront homes in this market remain highly sought-after, especially those offering both privacy and access to major city amenities.
