The B. C. Calvert House is a historic Late Victorian style house located in Union, Kentucky. It was built in 1875, and on February 6, 1989, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

It is a five-bay, central passage plan house with a three-bay porch with turned posts and a bracketed cornice. It was deemed notable as "a good example of Folk Victorian architecture significant to Boone County in the period 1875-1900."[2]

The property includes two outbuildings and a brick smokehouse which are contemporary with the house.[2]
