56 Frederick St, Apt 2, Fall River, MA 02721

Rent is $2,400 per month on this two-level four-bedroom townhouse at 56 Frederick Street in Fall River's Maplewood neighborhood. The landlord pays town water and the septic system. You open electricity with National Grid, Massachusetts Electric Company, at (800) 322-3223, fill the outdoor propane tank for heat and hot water, and arrange cable and internet. Winter propane sits on top of the $2,400 rent on this South Coast four-bedroom.

The security deposit is $2,400, matching one month of rent on Unit 2. Under M.G.L. c.186 §15B, a Massachusetts landlord may take first month's rent, last month's rent, a deposit capped at one month, and the actual cost of a new lock and key. This Maplewood listing collects first month plus that one-month deposit and leaves last month at $0, so the cash at signing stays inside the statutory cap.

Move-in totals $4,800: first month's rent of $2,400 plus a $2,400 security deposit. Last month's rent is $0, and Fortified Realty Group charges no broker fee and no application fee. Two payments cover signing on this 1,200-square-foot two-level four-bedroom at 56 Frederick Street, Fall River, MA 02721 — not the three- or four-month asks common on other South Coast four-bedrooms.

Unit 2 rents as a Tenant At Will — month-to-month under Massachusetts law rather than a fixed 12-month term. Either party can end the tenancy with proper written notice, generally one full rental period under M.G.L. c.186 §12. That setup fits a renter who wants a 1,200-square-foot four-bedroom townhouse in Maplewood now without locking a full year at 56 Frederick Street.

Unit 2 is a two-level townhouse: dining room, granite kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, and the only bathroom on the main floor; two more bedrooms, an open area, and hall closets upstairs. Four bedrooms share one full bath with a tub, shower, and granite vanity — that single bathroom is the real constraint. Closets for the upstairs bedrooms sit in the hall, not inside the rooms. Confirm the stair count and sloped ceilings on the tour.

Yes. There is off-street parking at 56 Frederick Street, but it is unassigned and first come, first serve — no reserved stall is tied to Unit 2. This is a two-family, so both households share the driveway spaces. Whitefield Street and Frederick Street also have curb parking subject to City of Fall River posted rules, including winter snow emergencies. Count the spaces when you tour this Maplewood townhouse.

Yes — the landlord will consider pets on a case-by-case basis at 56 Frederick Street Unit 2, and approval is at the landlord's sole discretion. Bring breed, weight, and vaccination details to your tour so the request can be reviewed before you apply. A documented service animal or assistance animal is handled as a reasonable accommodation under fair housing law and M.G.L. c.151B, not as a household pet.

Washer and dryer hookups are in the basement. No washer or dryer is provided, so you supply and install your own machines before wash day works here. Everyday loads mean a trip down to the basement — there is no in-unit laundry on the main floor or upstairs. If you have not bought a set yet, Laundromax at 321 Rhode Island Avenue is about eight-tenths of a mile east and runs long weekend hours with large dryers.

The landlord covers town water and the septic system. You pay electricity through National Grid at (800) 322-3223 — outages go to 1-800-465-1212 — and you fill the outdoor propane tank that feeds heat and hot water. Cable and internet are yours to arrange. This Maplewood unit is not on a tenant natural-gas account. Budget a National Grid electric bill and propane fills on top of the $2,400 rent at 56 Frederick Street.

Heat is propane baseboard. A large propane tank sits outside, and filling it is the tenant's job — that tank runs both heat and hot water. Summer cooling is a window air conditioner you supply; there is no central air. Because heat and hot water ride propane, factor winter fills into the monthly budget rather than treating $2,400 as an all-in number on this two-level Maplewood four-bedroom.

The kitchen includes a stainless refrigerator, stove, microwave over the range, granite counters, and modern cabinets. The bathroom has a granite vanity, tub and shower, and newer tile. Downstairs floors are pre-finished hardwood; upstairs is new carpet. There is no dishwasher and no washer or dryer — basement hookups only. Bring a window air conditioner for summer, and check the appliances on your tour of this 1,200-square-foot townhouse.

Yes. You enter Unit 2 from a back deck that looks over wetlands, and the property has a yard. The deck can hold a table, chairs, and a grill. This is a two-family on Frederick Street off Whitefield Street, so outdoor space is shared with the other unit rather than a fenced private lot listed in the facts. Walk the deck, yard, and propane tank location during your tour before you apply.

Yes. Lawful source of income is a protected class in Massachusetts under M.G.L. c.151B, so Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers, MRVP, VASH, and RAFT are reviewed on the same standards as any other qualified application. Bring your voucher paperwork to the showing so the $2,400 rent can be checked against your program's payment standard for this two-level four-bedroom at 56 Frederick Street in Maplewood.

After you tour Unit 2, you submit a rental application that Fortified Realty Group reviews for income, rental history, credit, and references. There is no application fee — Fortified absorbs the screening cost. Every applicant is evaluated on the same standards under Massachusetts fair housing law, including the source-of-income protections in M.G.L. c.151B. Call (508) 671-7228 if you want the file checklist before you book a showing of this Maplewood townhouse.

The tour notes a renovation with 2020-era finishes; no construction year is on the facts sheet.

The Fall River Depot MBTA station at 825 Davol Street sits about 2.5 miles north of 56 Frederick Street — a short drive from Maplewood toward Davol Street.
