This is straight from the DVLA website for driving with an EU license in the UK.

You can drive in Great Britain on your full, valid driving licence until you’re 70, or for 3 years after becoming resident in Great Britain, whichever is longer

The above applies as long as your license was originally issued in the EU, if you exchanged say a USA driving license for another EU license then different rules apply.

You can drive in Great Britain for only 12 months if you got your EU licence by exchanging your non-EU licence.

FWIW the address on my license is currently my parents address, I visit there every 2-3 weeks and IIRC as long as you are still contactable at the address then it is valid. If this is not the case then I'd better update it.
