12 The View is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Roundhay, Leeds, Leeds (LS8 1JL). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
