Wests Tigers champion Braith Anasta and his actor wife Jodi Gordon have officially lowered their price guidance on their recently listed four-bedroom, two-bathroom Clovelly home.

Initially more than $1.8 million was being suggested for the two-storey semi, but now the agents are quoting $1.7 million plus.

Agents hope the lowering of the price guide might introduce stronger competition in the lead-up to next weekend's auction.

It was bought for $1,805,000 in 2011 by Anasta. It had sold previously at $1.76 million in 2009.

Its purchase by Anaasta was funded when the then Sydney Roosters captain sold a Malabar investment property for $1.32 million in early 2011.

It has been scheduled for June 25 auction through his estate agent brother Damon Anasta at McGrath Coogee inconjunction with his colleague, Mark McPherson.

Its initial price hopes were based on a Winchester Road semi that sold recently at $1.85 million.

RP Data gives Clovelly's median house price as $1.365 million, down 9.8% over the past year.

Its down 3.8% over the past five years, according to RP Data.

The average discounting required of vendors is typically around 10% to secure a sale
