About this rental
This is a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment at 76 Stetson Street, Unit 2F, in Fall River's New Boston Road neighborhood — about 700 square feet on the second floor of a six-unit walk-up. You get a separate bedroom, a full bathroom, a living area, and a kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, microwave, and dishwasher. There is no elevator; one flight of stairs reaches the unit from the street.
Rent is $1,495 per month. The landlord pays water, sewer, gas, heat, and hot water. You set up electricity through National Grid at (800) 322-3223 and arrange cable and internet yourself. Heat is gas baseboard or radiator; summer cooling is a window air conditioner you supply. Coin-operated washers and dryers are in the basement. Parking is on the street only — there is no off-street space. The landlord will consider pets case by case, at the landlord's sole discretion.
The lease is Tenant At Will (month-to-month). Move-in is $2,990 — first month of $1,495 plus a $1,495 security deposit — with last month $0, no broker fee, and no application fee. Lead paint status is unknown.

Before you apply
What is the monthly rent at 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F, and what does it include?
Rent is $1,495 per month on this second-floor one-bedroom at 76 Stetson Street in Fall River's New Boston Road neighborhood. The landlord pays water, sewer, gas, heat, and hot water, so those bills stay off your ledger. You open an electricity account with National Grid, Massachusetts Electric Company, at (800) 322-3223, plus cable and internet on your own. Winter heat stays inside the $1,495 figure rather than arriving as a separate South Coast gas bill.
How much is the security deposit, and what does Massachusetts law allow?
The security deposit is $1,495, equal to one month's rent on Unit 2F. M.G.L. c.186 §15B lets a Massachusetts landlord collect first month's rent, last month's rent, a deposit no larger than one month, and the actual cost of a new lock and key — four buckets, nothing else. This listing takes first month plus that one-month deposit and skips last month entirely, so the cash due at signing stays inside the statute on this New Boston Road one-bedroom.
What is the total move-in cost for 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F?
Move-in totals $2,990: first month's rent of $1,495 plus a $1,495 security deposit. Last month's rent is $0 on this unit, and Fortified Realty Group charges no broker fee and no application fee. Two equal payments rather than three or four months of cash is the whole ask at signing for this 700-square-foot second-floor one-bedroom at 76 Stetson Street, Fall River, MA 02720.
What lease term is offered at 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F?
Unit 2F rents as a Tenant At Will — month-to-month under Massachusetts law, not a locked 12-month lease. Either side can end the tenancy with proper written notice, generally one full rental period under M.G.L. c.186 §12. That structure fits a renter who wants a 700-square-foot one-bedroom on Stetson Street now without committing a full year on a second-floor walk-up in Fall River's New Boston Road neighborhood.
Is there off-street parking at 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F?
No. There is no off-street parking, no driveway stall, and no assigned garage with Unit 2F. You park on Stetson Street or the adjoining residential curbs and share those spaces with neighbors. Fall River does not run a citywide residential permit program on these New Boston Road blocks, so you do not buy a city parking permit. Plan extra time on snow-emergency nights when posted winter rules clear the curb.
Are pets allowed at 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F?
Yes — the landlord will consider pets on a case-by-case basis at 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F, 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 a reasonable-accommodation question under fair housing law and M.G.L. c.151B, not a household-pet ask, and you can raise that during the Fortified application.
Where do tenants do laundry at 76 Stetson Street?
Coin-operated washers and dryers sit in the basement of this six-unit building at 76 Stetson Street, shared by every apartment. There is no in-unit washer, dryer, or hookup on the second floor, so everyday loads mean a trip down the stairs with quarters or whatever payment the machines take. For oversized comforters, Laundry World at 208 New Boston Road is about two-tenths of a mile north and runs 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.
Which utilities does the tenant pay at Unit 2F, and which stay with the landlord?
The landlord covers water, sewer, gas, heat, and hot water inside the $1,495 rent. You pay electricity through National Grid at (800) 322-3223 — outages go to 1-800-465-1212 — plus cable and internet if you want them. Because gas stays on the owner's account, you do not open a Fall River gas account for this unit. Budget a National Grid electric bill and a broadband plan on top of rent each month at 76 Stetson Street.
How is Unit 2F heated and cooled?
Heat is gas baseboard or radiator, and both the fuel and the heat bill are paid by the landlord. Cooling is window air conditioner only — this six-unit building at 76 Stetson Street has no central air, so you supply and install your own window unit for summer on the second floor. Owner-paid heat keeps January costs aligned with the $1,495 rent instead of a separate South Coast heating bill through the cold stretch.
What appliances come with 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F?
The kitchen includes a refrigerator, stove, microwave, and dishwasher, all provided with the unit. There is no in-unit washer or dryer — laundry stays in the shared basement coin-op room for the six apartments at 76 Stetson Street. Bring your own window air conditioner for summer. Check the working condition of the fridge, stove, microwave, and dishwasher during your tour of this 700-square-foot New Boston Road one-bedroom before you sign.
Do you accept Section 8 or other housing vouchers at Unit 2F?
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 $1,495 rent can be checked against your program's payment standard for this second-floor one-bedroom at 76 Stetson Street in Fall River before you apply.
What does the application and screening process involve?
After you tour Unit 2F, 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 New Boston Road one-bedroom.
Who manages 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F?
Fortified Realty Group LLC manages this six-unit building on Stetson Street in Fall River as the listing broker and property manager. Tours, applications, Tenant At Will paperwork, rent collection, and repair dispatch all run through one South Coast office rather than an off-site owner you cannot reach. Call (508) 671-7228 with leasing questions about this second-floor New Boston Road one-bedroom before or after you apply.
How do I report a maintenance issue after I move in?
Report repairs to Fortified Realty Group at (508) 671-7228. Once you are a tenant at 76 Stetson Street Unit 2F, Fortified logs the request, sends the right trade, and tracks the job through completion. For a heat, water, or electrical emergency in this six-unit walk-up, call that office line first so the issue is on the record and routed without delay. After-hours emergencies still start on that same Fall River number.
What is the lead paint status of this apartment?
Lead paint status for Unit 2F is recorded as unknown. Public records list the building at 76 Stetson Street as dating to 1900, so at lease signing you receive the Massachusetts Tenant Lead Law Notification required under M.G.L. c.111 §197. Ask Fortified Realty Group at (508) 671-7228 for any available property records before you sign, especially if a child under six will live in this second-floor apartment in Fall River.
How close is 76 Stetson Street to the Fall River train station and major highways?
The Fall River Depot MBTA station at 825 Davol Street sits about one mile west of 76 Stetson Street — a short drive via North Main Street onto Davol Street. South Coast Rail on the Fall River/New Bedford Line opened March 24, 2025, with service to Boston's South Station. Route 24 is minutes west of New Boston Road, and Interstate 195 runs the South Coast toward Providence and New Bedford.
What's nearby for everyday errands around New Boston Road?
A few blocks north, New Boston Bakery at 279 New Boston Road covers weekday breakfast, lunch, and from-scratch pastry. Health Care Pharmacy at 1030 President Avenue is the independent prescription stop about half a mile out, including delivery. Laundry World at 208 New Boston Road handles oversized loads when the basement machines are full. Charlton Memorial Hospital at 363 Highland Avenue is about three-tenths of a mile west, and the MBTA Fall River/New Bedford Line leaves from Fall River Depot.
Is Unit 2F on the ground floor, and are there stairs?
No — Unit 2F sits on the second floor of a six-unit building at 76 Stetson Street with no elevator. One flight of stairs takes you from the street door to the apartment; basement laundry is one more flight down. You are not on the ground floor and you are not on the third floor. Confirm the stair count in person if mobility is a factor on this New Boston Road one-bedroom.
