22 Griffin Lane, Usher WA 6230

3 bed, 1 bath, 1999 build | 611m² lot, elevated timbered outlook | family rental yield around 4.5% | simple configuration in a quiet pocket This property is competitively positioned as a straightforward family home in a low-density suburban pocket of Usher, where the elevated position and timbered outlook give it a noticeably more private and peaceful feel than many comparably sized lots in the area. The 611m² block is generous enough for a family with outdoor needs, and the drive-through rear access adds practical utility for storage or a trailer. Built in 1999, the house is not new but sits in a pocket of similarly aged stock, meaning the streetscape is consistent and the suburb’s character is established. The configuration of 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom is simpler than what many modern families seek, which makes this property best suited to first-home buyers, downsizers, or investors targeting the steady family-rental demand that comes with being in the Newton Moore Senior High School intake zone. The estimated rental return of around $635 per week against a value in the low $700,000s suggests a gross yield near 4.5%, which is reasonable for a detached house in a regional centre like Bunbury. What may materially affect the value or sale price is the single-bathroom layout, which could limit appeal for families who prefer a second bathroom or an ensuite, and may require a price adjustment to attract the broadest buyer pool. The 1999 build age means systems like the roof, hot water system, and kitchen appliances may be approaching the end of their serviceable life, which a buyer should factor into their offer. The absence of bushfire, flood, or heritage overlays is a neutral signal, but the property’s elevated position might mean higher exposure to wind or summer heat, which could affect comfort or energy costs. The NBN Fibre to the Node connection is adequate but not premium, and while 5G coverage is present, a buyer working from home may want to confirm actual performance. The peaceful, timbered outlook is a genuine strength, but it may also mean the property is set back from main roads and amenities, so a buyer should verify walking or driving distances to shops, schools, and the Bunbury city centre.
