Harry the Hirer founder Rick Jamieson lists Bellarine estate

Rick Jamieson, the founder of party supply and events company Harry The Hirer, has listed his 60-hectare Bellarine estate, with interest from $12 million.

Jamieson is also a horse breeder and is famous for selling Black Caviar as a yearling for $210,000 after he had concerns for her front legs.

Jamieson bought the Spray Farm estate in 2010 for $7.05 million from Scothman’s Hill Vineyard and Winery owners the Browne family.

The 1851 homestead on Portarlington Road was restored by the Browne family in 1998 and long operated as a high-end function centre, witnessing the marriage of Cathy Freeman.

Jamieson converted the historic farm and vineyard into a private residence after a multi-million-dollar refurbishment.

Spray Farm boasts seven bedrooms, six bathrooms and features high ceilings with detailed cornices, ceilings roses and timber floors.

The stables have been converted into four guest suites.

The architecturally designed gardens are greeted with a sandstone deck, which offers panoramic views over the Bellarine Penisula.

Spray Farm has been listed for private sale through Gerald Delany and Nicole Gleeson from Kay and Burton.

The agents say given Spray Farms rare commodity, it is difficult to put an exact price on the property as there really are no comparables.
