Statement of Significance

Budgeree is significant to the Cardinia Shire for its long association with the Greaves family who were prominent in the Shire and beyond. It is also unusual as a brick 19th century house built on a selection in a district where timber was more common. The Greaves were known for their brick villas (see Warook Homestead) which is a further physical association with the family.

The former post office building has local historical interest as a former public building known by many in the community.
