The Brooks House is a historic house at 704 East Market Street in Searcy, Arkansas. It is a 1+12-story wood-frame structure, with a side-gable roof, and a slightly off-center projecting gabled section, from which an entrance vestibule projects further at its left edge. To the left of the projecting section is a segmented-arch dormer over a group of three sash windows. Built about 1935, it is a fine local example of a modest English Revival house, echoing more elaborate and larger-scale homes of the style in wealthier communities.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
