unfurnish

An unfurnished apartment or house has no furniture in it at all.

When people are looking for a new place to live, they might search for apartments that are already furnished or those that aren't. Unfurnished flats and houses usually have empty rooms with just walls, floors, and ceilings. Sometimes the owner of the property will leave old appliances like stoves and refrigerators, but usually everything is gone except for maybe some basic light fixtures and plumbing. If you move into an unfurnished place, you'll probably need to buy all your furniture and decor from scratch or bring it with you from your previous home.
