Property highlights
This first-floor apartment at 795 North Underwood St 1N sits in Fall River’s quiet North End neighborhood — an established residential pocket of one- and two-family homes and small multifamilies, set back from the busy commercial strips. The building is a circa-1900 white-clapboard six-unit with a classic mansard roof, dormered top floor, and a paved rear lot with two unassigned parking spots reserved for this unit.
The apartment’s standout feature is the master bedroom: it’s the largest room in the unit, with four tall original windows, period wood trim and decorative panel detailing, double closets, and original hardwood floors with character patina. We list this as a 3-bedroom — and if you don’t need the extra room, the front room makes a great dining room or home office. There’s also a small detail Liz shows in the video tour: a “secret passageway” closet that connects the front bedroom to the master, a quirky bit of old-Fall-River charm.
- 3-bedroom layout — honest disclosure: One bedroom is accessed by walking through another. See the YouTube tour for the layout. Use it as a 3-bedroom, or set up the front room as a dining room or home office if you don’t need the extra bedroom.
- Private back-door entry: First-floor apartment opens directly onto the parking lot — no shared hallways, no stairs.
- Full bathroom with tub: Standard tub/shower, vanity, and a window for natural light.
- Laundromat down the hill: No in-unit laundry — North End Laundromat is right down the hill at 1837 N Main St, open 7 days a week with self-serve and wash-dry-fold drop-off.
- Two off-street parking spots in the rear lot — assigned to this unit, no permits needed.
- 1.3 miles to the new Fall River Depot MBTA commuter rail station — a 6-minute drive via N Main St. The new South Coast Rail line opened in March 2025 with one-seat service to Boston’s South Station. See the current MBTA Fall River Line schedule.
- Water and sewer included in the $1,750 all-in rent — tenant covers electric, gas, heat, hot water, internet, and cable.

What are the move-in costs for an apartment in Fall River, MA?
Massachusetts law caps a landlord’s upfront ask at first month’s rent, last month’s rent, a security deposit (no more than one month), and a lock/key cost at actual cost (M.G.L. c. 186, §15B). For this specific unit, we collect first month + security deposit only — no last month. So you’d budget $3,500 to move in, and there’s no application fee. See our full Renting with Fortified disclosures for details.
Does the apartment at 795 North Underwood St 1N allow pets?
Pets are negotiable, subject to landlord approval on this unit. Bring information about your pet (type, breed, weight, age, and any references from previous landlords or vets) to your showing or include it in your application — the landlord makes the call case by case.

Landlord pays water and sewer. The tenant pays electric (National Grid), gas (Liberty Utilities), heat, hot water, internet, and cable.

Should I rent in Fall River or Providence?
It depends on what you value: Providence has more nightlife, restaurants, and walkable density, but rents are 25–40% higher for comparable units.
