The town was originally incorporated in 1922 in  order to levy taxes for the construction of roads and repairs.  It is named after the Brents Wood estate built in 1817 by Robert Brent, the 1st mayor of Washington, DC.  

When incorporated, the houses consisted of small frame bungalows, of which many remain. The majority of homes in Brentwood were built during and after World War II and are mainly Cape Cod and Ranch style homes. There are two small service-oriented commercial areas. A focal point is Bartlett Park named for Captain Bartlett who deeded the land to the town. The park is home to the Wohlfarth Building, which serves as the Town Hall.
