Addison House is a handsome Grade II Listed property, set in an idyllic position just outside the village of Durrington. The property dates from around 1870 and was once the rectory for the neighbouring St. Mary’s Church, and feature splendid roughcast and flint elevations and leaded, stone-mullion windows outside. Inside there are exposed wooden floors and attractive original fireplaces, alongside elegant, understated modern décor and fittings.

The welcoming reception hall features flagstone flooring and a handsome oak staircase leading to the upper level. Either side of the reception hall are the two principal formal reception rooms; a dining room with an open fireplace and a large south facing window welcoming plenty of natural light, and a well-proportioned dual aspect drawing room, also with a splendid open fireplace.

The study and the snug are towards the rear, providing space in which to work in privacy and relax as a family respectively. Both rooms are fitted with logburners. Also on the ground floor is a well-appointed kitchen with shaker-style fitted units, an Aga, a walk-in larder and space for a breakfast table. The utility room and cellar provide space for further storage and home appliances.

Two staircases lead to the first floor, where there are five bedrooms, one of which could be used as a study or dressing room, while the others are all generously proportioned. They include the principal bedroom with its walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom, as well as one other bedroom en suite. Additionally, the first floor has a family bathroom and a shower room, while on the second floor you will find a further three bedrooms among the eaves, plus a family shower room.

The house is set in stunning country gardens with beautifully maintained lawns and border beds stocked with various shrubs and flowering perennials. The grounds mostly lie at the front of the property, where the driveway leads to a gravel parking area and detached, brick-built outbuilding, which has a double garage, a further single garage and a workshop or stable. There are gardens either side of the parking area, both of which are south-facing and welcome plenty of sunlight throughout the day. They include formal gardens with a patio area and pristine lawn directly in front of the house with deep border beds to one side and mature trees to the other, while at the side and rear there is additional lawn and a further paved seating area, as well as access to the secondary storage outbuilding. The gardens extend beyond the parking area, where there is a vegetable garden, a greenhouse and further mature trees, shrubs and hedgerows.
