And finally… there’s no place like home
Is it Marbella? The South of France? Dubai? Don’t be silly – it’s a penthouse apartment in Leeds, formerly rented out to footballer Robin Koch and now available for anyone with £1.1m to spare.
Marketed by Leeds-based Zenko, the three-bed property is in Brewery Wharf, a 325-flat scheme spread across six blocks in the South Bank area of the city.
Owned by the same couple for 20 years, it was the home of Koch during his tenure at Leeds United and his loan to Eintracht Frankfurt from 2020-24.
But, the sale of the footballer seems to have triggered a sale of another kind, as his former home is now available for £1,095,000.

Is there anything more satisfying than having a look around other peoples houses? Anyone wanting a further nosey around can do so here.
