Town centre revitalisation and infrastructure improvements including school expansion and active transport upgrades are underway or planned, positioning the suburb as an emerging secondary employment and residential node within the Yarra Ranges.

Not heritage listed

Montrose is a suburban locality in the Dandenong Ranges region with modest early-to-mid 20th century residential character, typical of outer metropolitan Melbourne. Most properties are not individually heritage-listed, and the area lacks a formal conservation area overlay, though scattered local heritage items exist within the broader community. Development is primarily subject to standard Shire of Yarra Ranges planning controls rather than heritage restrictions.
