New Fall River MBTA station attracts homebuyers to Maplewood
A residential neighborhood on the south end of the small city of Fall River, Maplewood has seen real estate values rise in recent years, alongside an increase for the city generally, in anticipation of a new Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority commuter rail station that opened in March 2025. About 3 miles south of the station, Maplewood has a large shopping center, a neighborhood elementary school and a public park that’s surrounded by single-family homes. The rail line’s development has attracted new residents and businesses to Fall River, which is 20 miles southeast of Providence, Rhode Island, and 54 miles south of Boston. “When I started real estate in 2016, when you’d talk to a buyer and ask them what town they want to live in, all the time we’d get surrounding areas, but now, people are asking specifically for Fall River,” says Realtor Pamela Laliberte, who’s also a resident. “Our waterfront has really built up, and businesses have been opening all over the city. People are finally seeing all that Fall River has to offer.”
Fall River, MA's Maplewood area saw growth with the new commuter rail station in March 2025.

Ranch-style and bi-level homes, townhouses and condos
Maplewood mostly features single-family homes, along with some townhouses, condos and apartments. “It has a mix of single- and multifamily housing,” Laliberte says, "but a lot of single-family, and a lot of the multifamily is owner-occupied.” Ranch-style and bi-level homes are common, and recent sales prices for single-family homes range from around $300,000 to $600,000, while townhouses and condos typically sell for between $200,000 and $400,000. Though Maplewood is considered a walkable community for its proximity to shops, restaurants and parks, many of its residential streets do not have sidewalks.
