It all depends on how you present the data (mark up) in your view.

@Html.EditorFor(m=>m.BoolValue) -> renders a checkbox so that the user can "edit" the data.

@Html.LabelFor(m=>m.BoolValue) -> renders the string "BoolValue" unless you have a data annotation ([DisplayName("Some New Name")]) naming it something different. This is to generate a label to associate with a checkbox.

@model.BoolValue -> Will render true or false, whatever the value of the BoolValue variable is.

Rather than using Html.EditorFor, you simply want to use @Model.IsFurnished.

Html.EditorFor will provide a checkbox for a bool because it is the most logical way to represent a value of true or false.
