Millbrook is a historic home and farm complex located near Crewe, Nottoway County, Virginia. The original section of the Federal-style main house was built about 1840, and expanded to its present size about 1855. It is a balanced two-story, five-bay, center-hall plan I-house with a Greek Revival-style centered front porch and English basement with three finished floors above. Also on the property are a contributing tobacco barn ruin, and four restored contributing buildings: kitchen, smokehouse, hay barn, and dairy.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.[1]
