From Junction 2 on the M42 motorway head northwards on the A441 towards Birmingham. Proceed straight ahead on the A441 over the roundabout and shortly afterwards turn right into Ash Lane adjacent to the petrol station. Follow the lane for about a third of a mile and turn left into Stonehouse Lane. Stonehouse Farm can be found on the right hand side.
Stonehouse Farm is one of a small number of dwellings situated in Stonehouse Lane which lies on the edge of the village of Hopwood in a quite beautiful rural location with open countryside to both front and rear. From this stunning setting it is difficult to believe how convenient the position is. Barnt Green and Alvechurch villages are both about two miles away with their excellent shopping centres and other amenities including post office, doctors and dental surgeries, train services and schools. The property lies about a mile from junction 2 of the M42 motorway bringing many parts of the country within easy reach, particularly Solihull, the NEC, Birmingham International Railway Station and Birmingham Airport.
Hopwood lies about eleven miles to the south of Birmingham City Centre amidst greenbelt countryside. Stonehouse Lane is a haven for wildlife and perfect for walkers with footpaths close by leading to wild flower meadows. There are a wide range of sporting amenities in the area including golf, tennis, badminton, squash, cricket and rugby.
Local centres include Birmingham - 11 miles; Bromsgrove - 8 miles; Stratford upon Avon - 20 miles; Worcester - 21 miles; Birmingham International Airport/NEC/Railway Station - 15 miles and M40 - 9 miles (all distances approximate)
