show flat

Model home interior

A show flat is a furnished apartment used to demonstrate a property development to prospective buyers or renters.

Developers outfit show flats with attractive décor to help visitors envision living there: The show flat had staged furniture and fresh flowers, but the actual units come empty.

Chiefly British; the American equivalent is model apartment or model unit.
