I don't see any reason why she would not get visit Visa if she applies.
She can come and visit you , I guess they normally give Visit visa for 6 months and not 12.

For family visit visa, there are certain requirments that need to be fulfilled.

1. You have to establish the fact that the visitor will leave UK at the end of his stay and have no plans of staying here after his/her stay is over.

2. You have to prove the visitors strong connection with the home country.

3. The Visitor has to prove that he/she can afford the cost of travelling, staying, boarding, lodging, buying gifts etc.

If you are inviting your mother, you need to show your status and why you want to invite her. So a letter from yourside is required.

Yes you can get a furnished place for her and attach the documents that the rent etc is paid for the duration of her stay. This is not mandatory, however this will help in establishing a fact that the visitor is not going to be burdon on state.
