Montrose Real Estate & Houses for Sale

Montrose is a "jack-of-all-trades" when it comes to the ambience of this part of Edmonton. Most areas in Montrose are very quiet, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour. However, public green spaces, like Borden Park and Highlands Park, are especially well-spread out and there are approximately 30 of them nearby for residents to visit, which makes it very easy to reach them. Finally, although this part of Edmonton is not known for its vibrancy, with the bars in nearby neighbourhoods, it is very easy to find a place to grab a drink since they are generally located very close by.

Transportation

Montrose will attract house buyers that use a diversity of means of transportation. Montrose is home to a good transit system.

Property owners who value walkability will also enjoy the pedestrian-friendly character of Montrose; many day-to-day errands can be run without a vehicle. This neighbourhood is reasonably amenable to cycling because there are not many elevation changes to confront cyclists.
