Brook House is a wonderful country house standing centrally at the end of a long sweeping drive in magnificent gardens and grounds extending to approximately 48 acres. The private parkland setting is further complimented by a staff cottage discreetly located away from the house, together with stables, garaging, and a range of extensive and versatile outbuildings.

Arriving at the property from the lane, and despite passing through impressive electronic gates, few people would expect the superb country estate they were about to enter. Driving up the long sweeping drive through manicured lawns, the property, huge and square, looms ever larger on approaching. Slowing as you pull up, the crunch of your car tyres on the gravel the only sound, the eye is drawn up to the elegant facade. The courtyard, visible through the graceful stone archway beckons you to enter and you find yourself in a huge cobbled square, dwarfed by the soft cream rendered walls, with huge arched oak doors, and wonderful stone framed leaded windows all round. You would be forgiven for imagining that you were in a period English heritage property. The house was actually built in 1937 for Paul Gibbons, the renowned lock and window merchant of Wolverhampton, to exceptional bespoke specifications incorporating the best of period and contemporary architecture and showcasing an exceptional quality of materials and finishes and in an all encompassing Arts and Crafts styling. One can imagine fabulous parties within these walls, for the wealthy elite for whom the Great Depression had little relevance; young ladies in long satin dresses, taking a breather from dancing to the jazz band, drawing nonchalently on cigarette holders, and enjoying the balmy evening would certainly not be out of place in the elegant courtyard; the air of extravagance and grandeur, still very alive, is testament to an affluence and wealth enjoyed by a very few. Even now, standing on the huge terrace, looking out over the land in all directions, the property owner has the enviable satisfaction of being King of all he surveys.
