The McCarthy House in Virginia City, Nevada was built in 1875 before the Virginia City's Great Fire of October 26, 1875 but, downhill from commercial C Street, it survived the fire. It is a gable-front one-and-a-half story house with shiplap siding.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. It is also included in the Virginia City Historic District, a National Historic Landmark.
The house was occupied by T.F. McCarthy during 1875 to 1914, then vacant from 1914 to 1986.
