Lewis-Potter is set to join up with the rest of the Brentford squad at their pre-season training camp in Germany.
"I am pleased that we have managed to sign one of the biggest young talents in the Championship," Brentford boss Thomas Frank said.
"He had a very good season last year. He scored 13 goals and contributed four assists in a team that were fighting a little bit towards the bottom of the league. Those are impressive numbers.
"He has a very good mentality and fits the Brentford model perfectly. He is a good young player who we think has the qualities to play in the Premier League now. He will also develop even further."
