The reality star, 25, took to social media to share the couple's exciting news.
They looked smitten as they got ready to take the next big step in the budding romance
Finn's mystery lady was seen beaming as she leaned close to her man.
He captioned the sweet snap with: "We're home owners!!
"Today we picked up the keys to our little Victorian home!
"We cannot wait to get started with the renovations and make it our own! We couldn't be happier."
The former semi-pro footballer is still yet to reveal the identity of his new partner, but since going Instagram official last summer, he has shared plenty of loved-up snaps with her.
Finn launched to fame on Love Island in 2020, and that's where he met his now ex-girlfriend, Paige.
After three years together, the pair announced their split in 2023.
It was an amicable break-up, with Paige admitting they'd "lost themselves in each other" after winning winter Love Island and moving in together straight away.

However, they were reunited last year, when they both took part in Celebrity Ex On The Beach.
However, things took a turn when shortly after filming wrapped, it was revealed that MAFS Australia star Tamara slept with Finn the night before the MTV show's launch party.
A source told The Sun at the time: "The cast was rocked by Finn and Tamara's fling. They felt really uncomfortable for Paige who they'd grown close to.
"At the party, the girls sided with Paige and kept their distance from Tamara.
"Tamara was heard telling guests she was having a 'miserable' time and they were 'all being so mean'."

‘Lovely for summer' cry shoppers as they run to Asda for £18 dress that has stretch, keeps you cool & flatters figure
A LEADING supermarket has sent shoppers into a frenzy with its flattering £18 dress - and it comes in two colours. So if the sunshine has got you thinking about your summer wardrobe, you've come to the right place. 3 3 George is the in-house fashion label at Asda and is renowned for its stylish buys at bargain prices. And a pretty frock that is "lovely and light" for summer has got fashion fans racing to their nearest store. It comes as temperatures are set to hit highs of 33C across the UK, and 27C in Scotland this weekend. The best part? The Asda item is only £18, meaning you could pick it up in both colours for under £40. The Polka Dot Flutter Sleeve Midi Dress comes in red or white, and is available in sizes eight to 24. It has a textured jersey fabric which means it doesn't crease, and the short flutter sleeves are perfect if you're self-conscious about the top of your arms. Delighted shoppers have already been raving about the spotty dress which they've hailed as a five-star buy. One gushed: "I absolutely love this dress! Lovely fit with a bit of stretch. "Lovely and light for summer. Throw on a cute jacket as autumn approaches. Perfect!" A second said: "I love this dress. Its a perfect fit, keeps me cool in this warmth and so tempted to buy the other colour. Curvy fashion fan praises dress which has makes her 'so confident' - it's perfect for top heavy girls & no is bra needed "I had it in my drawer for a few weeks before wearing it for the first time and it wasnt creased at all. Perfect for packing for holidays." "The colour is beautiful. Material is light weight. Looks good", wrote a third. A fourth added: "Very flattering. Great value. True to size." Meanwhile, a fifth cried: "Love Love Love this dress. Easy to wear fits perfectly and hangs nicely." Elsewhere, shoppers can't get enough of an £18 Sainsbury's summer dress that's flattering, heatwave-friendly and guarantees compliments. Primark has launched Nobody's Child dress dupes just in time for summer that are £77 cheaper and already shopper-approved. And fashion fans are loving the "prettiest" £35 Tesco dress that's perfect for weddings and comes in an on-trend, classy colour. DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in: The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family. Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street. Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year. So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful? Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative. A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year. Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.

Race horse sculpture by Sir Alfred Munnings to be sold at auction
A sculpture of 'one of the most celebrated racehorses of the last century' is to be sold at auction. The piece, by Sir Alfred Munnings, who is known as one of Britain's greatest equestrian painters, will go under the hammer at Christie's London on July 2. Racehorse Brown Jack had six consecutive victories at Ascot between 1929 and 1934. The tabletop bronze sculpture was created in an edition of just five, and is currently owned by the Munnings Art Museum in Colchester, Essex, which also owns a second. Scarlett Walsh, sculpture specialist at Christie's London, said: 'Sir Alfred Munnings is rightly celebrated as one of Britain's greatest equestrian painters, and Brown Jack reveals his extraordinary ability to capture the character and form of the horse in three dimensions. 'Executed with anatomical precision and deep personal affection, the work stands as a powerful tribute to one of the most iconic racehorses in British sporting history. 'Brown Jack offers collectors a rare opportunity to own a work of remarkable artistic and historical significance, also with outstanding provenance. It is a masterpiece of equine portraiture and a lasting testament to the artist's lifelong devotion to the subject he loved most.' The sculpture is estimated to sell for up to £300,000 at the auction, Christie's Old Masters To Modern Day Sale: Paintings, Drawings, Sculpture.

House Of CB has relaunched its iconic bandage dress and it's taking over social media right now - here's where you can get yours
As the old saying goes, everything old can be made new again - and the latest fashion trend to enter its comeback era is the iconic bandage dress (we apologise if the word sends a shudder down your spine). Those who went clubbing during the noughties will be all too familiar with the figure-hugging design, which was usually paired with sky-high heels, a statement necklace and hair backcombed to the high heavens. House Of CB The Supermodel Chocolat Halter Midi Bandage Dress Bandage is back in a big way - but gone are the days of struggling to get into a rigid and uncomfortable material. House Of CB's The Supermodel is your new must-have for occasions when you need to bring the wow factor, crafted from a luxurious stretch fabric with a special tension quality that cinches to every curve. With a sweetheart neckline and halter neck straps, it's both universally flattering and unexpectedly comfortable (and sure to earn you lots of compliments). £169 Back then, the trend was loved by the it-girls of the moment: think Mischa Barton, Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton. And if you still have yours lurking in your wardrobe somewhere, or you threw it out, get ready to dust yours off or invest in a new one, as we're here to tell you: bandage dresses are officially back. With a roster of celebrity fans including Alix Earle, Eva Longoria and Millie Bobby Brown, House Of CB was incredibly popular throughout the 2010's, and rebranded from its former name Celeb Boutique in 2014. Though the design pre-existed the brand, House Of CB has been widely credited with popularising the design and making it a key trend throughout the 2010's. Throughout the evolution of the brand, its collection has gone from bodycon dresses and party wear to high-quality designs that are recognised and loved worldwide, including a stunning selection of bridal wear designs. When Hailey Bieber was spotted in a bandage-style dress at the Fashion Trust U.S Award's earlier this year, it was only a matter of time since the iconic silhouette became a wardrobe must-have once again (searches for the style have surged 300 per cent in just one week) - and to celebrate, House Of CB has relaunched the ever-popular design. The limited-edition collection features 15 bandage dress styles — from mini to midi-length designs — in an array of different colours. And since House Of CB announced the comeback of the bandage dress on social media, fans have been going crazy. 'I have not been this excited for a comeback ever,' wrote on TikTok user in House Of CB's now-viral video announcing the the return of the bandage dress. 'I am so excited for the youth,' said another. 'Every 21 year old deserves to have a reckless night out in a bandage dress,'. 'Ok I'm officially feeling old if this is fashionable again - I'm here for it, though!', said another user. A must-have, easy-to-style addition to your occasion wear wardrobe, House Of CB's limited-edition bandage dress collection features dresses crafted from ultra-luxe stretch fabric and cinching tension technology - gone are the days of that rigid, uncomfortable material that you had to fight to get into. While we won't be wearing ours with a statement necklace this time around, we'll be pairing The OG with dressy sandals for our summer holiday looks, and The Supermodel with a classic black pair of pumps for an elegant take on the trend once reserved for party girls. How will you be wearing yours? You can shop the bandage dress collection now at - though be quick, as this limited-edition collection won't be around for long.
