The Bishop Brookes House is a historic house at 407 North 6th Street in De Queen, Arkansas. It is a 2+12-story brick structure, built between 1922 and 1928 by Bishop Brookes, Sr., the proprietor of the locally prominent Brookes Drug Store. The house is an excellent local example of Colonial Revival architecture, with a symmetrical facade, and a center entry with portico supported by Corinthian columns. The house remained in the Brookes family until 1995.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
