Vanessa Amorosi’s $2.6m Narre Warren North estate sold after court battle

Australian pop sensation Vanessa Amorosi has finally closed the door on a bitter family feud with the sale of her sprawling Narre Warren North property, ending years of legal wrangling with her mother, Joyleen Robinson.

Property records show the six-bedroom estate in Melbourne’s southeast sold for $2.6m on August 20, marking the final chapter of a dispute that has dominated headlines and courtrooms for nearly a decade.

The sale comes after a Supreme Court ruling that ordered Robinson to vacate the property, which she had lived in since 2001.

Despite claiming the home was gifted to her by Amorosi during a kitchen conversation, the court found Robinson was never entitled to ownership.

Justice Steven Moore ruled in September 2022 that Robinson had to leave the estate within 60 days of receiving $870,000 in restitution from her daughter.

Singer Vanessa Amorosi has sold her Narre Warren North property for $2.6m.

The six-bedroom property had been at the centre of a bitter legal feud with her mother.

All remnants of the pop star’s former life have now been removed, including a ramshackle parking lot of rusty cars that previously shadowed her former studio.

While all remnants of Amorosi’s former life have now been removed from the 8.09ha property, including a dilapidated parking lot filled with rusty cars near her old studio.

The listing, which also includes a well-kept family home with open-plan living spaces and rolling-hills outlooks, painted a picture of tranquillity for prospective buyers:

“Picture this: You turn off the main road onto your own private driveway, leaving the world behind. Twenty magnificent acres stretch before you, rolling hills dotted with mature trees, and in the distance, your lake catches the morning light like scattered diamonds. This isn’t just a property it’s your personal sanctuary,” the listings add on realestate.com.au read.

However, its serene exterior masked years of turmoil for Amorosi, who purchased the home at the peak of her career only to face financial ruin.

In an interview with Channel Nine’s 60 Minutes, the Absolutely Everybody hitmaker revealed she was forced to sell assets, including the estate, to repay debts she hadn’t realised she had incurred during her pop stardom.

Amorosi’s alleged her financial troubles stemmed from her mother’s management of her trust during her most successful years.

While forensic accountants found no evidence of mismanagement, the singer claimed she was left bankrupt and had no choice but to challenge her mother in court.

The legal battle, which began in 2014, exposed deep fractures in their relationship and culminated in both women taking the witness stand.

Meanwhile, Robinson described the Narre Warren North property as a “dream come true” during court proceedings, while Amorosi expressed frustration over the financial missteps that led to her downfall.

The singer, who earned an estimated $10 million during her peak, is now preparing to tour Australia next year to celebrate the 25th anniversary of her debut album.
