Please forgive me if this question is so silly, I understand the whole text except the bold part:
Freddie Mercury moved out of the flat they shared together and into 12 Stafford Terrace in Kensington, and bought Austin a place of her own nearby.
Also, what is that "12"? -- Thanks
12 Stafford Terrace is an address: 12 is the street number, Stafford Terrace the name of the street.
Into is a preposition, corresponding to out of earlier; the two preposition phrases headed by these are conjoined with and just as the two main clauses are:
out of the flat they shared together
Freddie Mercury moved and
into 12 Stafford Terrace in Kensington
and
bought Austin a place of her own nearby.
