Welcome to 8822 SE Knapp St, a warm SE Portland ranch with real character and a backyard that completely changes the feel of the home. Inside, vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, large windows, and an open living/dining layout create a bright and comfortable main living space. The updated kitchen features granite counters, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, generous cabinetry, and a sleek range hood. The primary bedroom has private slider access directly to the backyard, making the outdoor space feel like an extension of the home. Set on a spacious .22-acre lot, the fenced yard is the standout: room for gardening, pets, entertaining, fire pit nights, summer BBQs, and future possibilities without feeling cramped. Add in a skylight in the bathroom, a two-car garage, and a convenient Lents location, and this home offers the kind of indoor comfort and outdoor space that's getting harder to find in SE Portland.
