The neighborhood — Globe Four Corners

170 King Street sits in the Globe Four Corners area of Fall River's South End, a dense residential pocket of triple-deckers below Globe Street and east of Rhode Island Avenue. Lou's Bakery at 379 East Main Street is a short hop away, and Yelp reviewers repeatedly call it the best spot for Portuguese sweet bread and massa in the Fall River area. For hardware and household runs, Schwartz Ace Hardware at 1756 South Main Street earns strong marks for service, with 81% of rated customers calling it superior. Since this unit has no laundry, the closest option is Laundromax at 321 Rhode Island Avenue, open 24 hours on weekends and holding a 4.8-star Google rating.

Route 24 is minutes away, putting Providence around 25 minutes out via I-195 and Boston roughly an hour north. The new Fall River Depot commuter rail station at 825 Davol Street is about three miles north, under 10 minutes by car, connecting the South Coast Rail line toward Boston.

Before you apply

What is the rent and what's included at 170 King Street Unit 2?

Rent is $1,900 per month at 170 King Street, Unit 2, in Fall River. Water and sewer are paid by the landlord and included in that figure. The tenant pays electricity, gas, heat, hot water, cable, and internet directly. There is no broker fee on this rental, so the sticker rent is what you commit to each month.

What is the security deposit and what are the Massachusetts limits?

The security deposit on this unit is $0. Under M.G.L. c.186 §15B, a Massachusetts landlord may collect at most first month's rent, last month's rent, a security deposit capped at one month's rent, and the actual cost of a new lock and key. Nothing beyond first and last is required to move into 170 King Street.

What does it cost to move in?

Move-in is $3,800 total: first month's rent of $1,900 plus last month's rent of $1,900. There is no security deposit and no broker fee on this Fall River apartment. That keeps the upfront cash lower than many comparable units, where a one-month deposit would add another $1,900 to the move-in figure.

What is the lease term?

This unit is offered as a Tenant At Will (TAW) agreement, which is month-to-month rather than a fixed 12-month lease. Either party may end the tenancy with proper written notice under Massachusetts law — generally one full rental period, or 30 days. It gives you flexibility without locking into a year-long commitment at 170 King Street.

How many bedrooms and bathrooms does the apartment have?

The apartment has 3 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom across roughly 1,200 square feet on the second floor. The layout includes three bedrooms plus a separate kitchen and a living room. It is a true three-bedroom, not a converted one- or two-bedroom with bonus space, which gives a household real room to spread out at 170 King Street.

Is parking included?

Yes. The unit comes with one off-street parking space. Parking is unassigned and first come, first serve for the building. King Street itself also allows on-street parking for additional vehicles or guests, subject to City of Fall River posted rules. With one dedicated off-street space included, you are not relying solely on street parking.

Are pets allowed?

No. Pets are not allowed at 170 King Street, Unit 2, per the owner's policy. This applies to the unit and the common areas of the three-family building. Service animals and assistance animals required as a reasonable accommodation are handled separately under fair housing law and are not considered pets under that framework.

Is there laundry in the unit or building?

No. There is no in-unit laundry and no shared laundry in this three-unit building. The nearest laundromat is Laundromax at 321 Rhode Island Avenue, about three minutes away and open 24 hours on weekends. Laundry World at 208 New Boston Road is a second option in Fall River. Plan to use a laundromat or a wash-and-fold service while living here.

Who pays the utilities?

The landlord pays water and sewer. The tenant pays electricity, gas, heat, hot water, cable, and internet. Electricity in Fall River is delivered by National Grid (800) 322-3223, and natural gas is delivered by Liberty Utilities (1-800-544-4944). Cable and internet are arranged by the tenant with a provider such as Xfinity. Budget for those accounts on top of the $1,900 rent.

How is the apartment heated and cooled?

Heat is provided by a gas space heater, and the gas account is in the tenant's name through Liberty Utilities (1-800-544-4944), Fall River's natural gas provider. Cooling is by window AC unit. Because heat and hot water are tenant-paid here, factor winter gas usage into your monthly budget rather than assuming a flat all-in cost.

What appliances come with the apartment?

The landlord provides a refrigerator and a gas stove in the kitchen. There is no dishwasher, microwave, or in-unit washer/dryer included with this unit. The gas range runs on the tenant's Liberty Utilities gas account. What you see at the tour — refrigerator and gas range — is what comes with the apartment at 170 King Street, Unit 2.

Do you accept Section 8 or housing vouchers?

Yes. In Massachusetts, source of income is a protected class under M.G.L. c.151B, so Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers, MRVP, VASH, and RAFT assistance are accepted on this unit. Voucher holders are screened on the same criteria as every other applicant. Bring your voucher paperwork to the tour so the process moves quickly.

What is the application and screening process?

Applicants complete a rental application and are screened on credit, income, rental history, and references. Income guidelines and any required documents are reviewed consistently for every applicant under Massachusetts fair housing law. The fastest path is to schedule a tour first, see the unit, and then apply if 170 King Street fits your needs and budget.

Who manages this apartment?

This unit is managed by Fortified Realty Group LLC, a licensed Massachusetts real estate brokerage serving Fall River, New Bedford, and the surrounding South Coast. Fortified handles leasing, maintenance coordination, and tenant communication directly, so you deal with a professional manager rather than chasing an absentee owner. Reach the office at (508) 671-7228 with any questions.

Who do I contact for maintenance and repairs?

Maintenance requests go through Fortified Realty Group at (508) 671-7228. Fortified coordinates licensed vendors for repairs and tracks each request to completion rather than leaving tenants to find their own contractors. For any heat, water, or electrical emergency, call the office line first so the issue is logged and dispatched quickly to the right trade.

What is the lead paint status of this apartment?

The lead paint status of 170 King Street, Unit 2, is listed as unknown. Under M.G.L. c.111 §197 and the Massachusetts Lead Law, owners of pre-1978 housing must disclose known lead paint information and provide the state tenant lead notification. Ask during your tour for the lead disclosure paperwork so you have the documented status before signing.

What is the Globe Four Corners neighborhood like?

Globe Four Corners sits in the Globe Village section of Fall River's South End, near Cook Pond and Broadway. It is a residential area of two- and three-family homes with neighborhood shopping along King Street and South Main Street. Carlton M. Viveiros Elementary and Matthew J. Kuss Middle School are both within roughly a third of a mile of the building.

How is the commute from 170 King Street?

The location favors commuters. I-195 is minutes north for trips to New Bedford or Providence, with Providence roughly 25 minutes west. Route 24 connects north toward Boston. The Fall River Depot MBTA commuter rail station at 825 Davol Street, which opened in March 2025, is about three miles north for the train into Boston. SRTA bus service runs along the nearby South End corridors.
