    IF what you say is true, your father cannot have left the entire house to your oldest brother. It was part yours when your mother died.
    But I have a feeling that the story isn't quite right. You would have received your share 10 years ago, and known it. Perhaps your mother left it to your dad, which is the most common arrangement between spouses.
    You and your other brother should talk to a lawyer about both wills. If your mother's estate was never probated, then it's possible that her will was ignored.
    I have a feeling that you are in the UK?
