When I was a kid in the late 70's my Mom's car broke down in Del Mar CA and happened to right in front of Desi Arnas's Mom' s house. She helped us out. She gave my Mom $50 and called us a cab. She was so sweet. Even gave us cookies! What a sweetheart. I will never forget that.
Wow! That is so cool! 💛💛
Traci Olson
Tour busses used to disgorge tourists on the cul de sac at the Houston home of GHW Bush and Barbara. Barbara in her autobiography complained because many wanted to enter her front yard. She definitely did not welcome them with cookies.
The TX legislature passed a bill which allowed any street where a POTUS lived to be gated. Whenever I passed by there was a shiny police car either entering, leaving, or parked across the street. GWB lives on a similarly gated street in Dallas.
Wow!! That's Beautiful Of Her To Do That. God Is Good 👍 👍.
Great story...Hollywood had more of a heart back then...
You were so Lucky! you got to meet her. What an Honor.
I actually like the before picture better than the modernized version.
S.A.B. Me too
I totally agree with you
S.A.B. Me to💯
Agreed , the new place resembles a funeral home
@@maxipazz8214 I agree with you!! I definitely prefer Lucy's pre- renovated version, much more cozier.
Liked it MUCH better the way Lucy had it!! Her version was very classy!
Agreed!
It’s quite surprising how little privacy these celebrities actually had as far a being so close to the street. All of the traffic noise would bother me. Thank you for such a thorough tour of the exterior of Lucille Ball’s home. How gorgeous. Wow. ❤
You’re so very welcomed and I’m so glad you enjoyed watching this! :)
I was at her home many years ago. This was when the home was original to her, and actually met her as she was coming out the drive way. I really like the look of the original house better than now 🤗
That is really neat! Did you speak to her?
Please tell us more!!!!
Another Lucky One.
Were you the paper boy??
Natalie Fox not hardly. Simply a fan visiting LA
I use to deliver mail to Lucille Ball Morton in the 70s.
James Turner what was that like? Ever meet them?
@@DrGariS No I just delivered mail and went to the next house. On a note Jimmy Stewart lived in last house East of her accross the street and Don Knox lived next door to Jimmy Stewart. All on North Roxbury Dr.
Wow Lucy was my favorite growing up as a kids . I watch her show m- f 7:00
@@lashturner Do you mean Don Knotts? I'm not being a smart-alec; I'm not very good with keeping track of celebrities. But I LOVE Don Knotts!
In those days it was a more open affair. Now its more about security gates and barriers.
If I was lucky enough to be able to afford Lucille Ball's house I wouldn't change one thing about it!
Me neither...!! It was so beautiful and I miss that era too .
That makes 3 of us!
@@DrGariS , wouldn't it have been awesome if they could have left it the way it was when she lived there AND THEN.... let fans tour her home ? That would have been an awesome tour....!!! Oh... gives me the chills just thinking about it . lol !! 💖
You wonder how interested the new owners were in the previous owners as they go about reconverting the house? I guess it is possible to be in awe of the previous, but still move forward with new concept for the house.
@@DrGariS 4 with me
I was a big fan of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz I still watch those old reruns Lucy's mansion house is gorgeous
Same here! It’s a beautiful neighborhood
I bet the neighborhood smells of money.😁
Have you seen THE LONG LONG TRAILER Movie She made with DESI A. Fantastic off the charts good.
@@charlesmurray4013 I have the DVD.
David Doyle absolutely!
I watched Lucille Ball on tv and 💕 💓 loved her I wish she was still alive today
Me too!
I saw this house back in 1994 and took a photo when it looked the way it did when Lucy owned it. It’s a beautiful home. It amazed me that anyone could walk right up to it given what a huge star she was. I guess different times. Stars weren’t stalked back then.
Wow that’s really cool. Do you still have that pic? I would love to see it.
LUCY had such great taste: the house looked more beautiful when she had it, they shouldn't have renovated it! I HATE when peoplee do that!
It was so much nicer the way it was originally. I totally agree!
I don't like too when the new owner renovated those property.
I agree, the house looked so much better with the dark shutters, black front door and window boxes which gave it character and charm when Lucy had it. The new owners took away all the charm and now it just looks too plain and boring. They even ruined the landscaping.
marylyn murphy all new money modern people do that , tacky cheap stucco
It did look prettier, with more charm with the black&white shuttered windows. The stuco color has more of a spanish, mordern look. Drove by this many times and it was very open, no fence, with their big cars parked in the driveway, but never any Lucy!
I have always been such a huge fan of Lucille Ball and her TV Shows! I am amazed that her home was so available to the public. I thought it would have been more secure! Thanks for the great tour. Makes me sad that the new owners changed the house. I would have left everything original and treasured it!
Everything you said is on point and validates what I feel too.
The structure of the house when she was alive was absolutely outstanding!!!
Too bad there isn’t a video of it.
@@DrGariS { that would be incredible! Does anyone do this? I did see a small video of Streisand's house and in the basement she keeps all her toskies. Anyways did you see Lucille Ball walking out of her house with those beautiful shrubs on both sides of her? Gosh, that lovely walk. I don't think I'll forget that. Can you imagine? I saw some when I was in Cali - honestly speaking,, I'm grateful for my one BR apt in midtown. I can't imagine having so much $.🙏} did you see the house where Elizabeth Montgomery lived/died? I think it's in central B H. She was actually walking out of the house w/her husband down the stairs landing to the main road. Check it out if you haven't already seen. Thanks! R.}
I get sad looking at these homes knowing the great actors who lived in them who gave us great joy are no longer with us rest in peace.
Jeffrey Ingram but at least we can remember people like her and smile since she gave so much to the world.
Yes so sad
They had a good life and in most cases a long life.
I don't feel sad about a life well lived but yeah, I miss the actors I favored most even though I never knew any of them personally, it still feels like a loss because of the familiar faces I grew up with in movies and tv shows that came to my living room to entertain me.
Well many have claimed that Lucy hasn't gone anywhere and still see her there roaming around the house, especially after they remodeled it to I'm assuming her greatest distaste.
Lucille Ball was my favorite actresses back in the day even as a child. I wanted to meet her so bad. But never had that privilege. Thank You for the Tour!
You’re so welcomed. She would be the top person I would want to meet too, if I could! Glad you enjoyed it. :)
Enjoyed very much the tour of Lucy’s house - thank you !
My pleasure! I’m glad you enjoyed it! :)
Not sure why they added the wall... said the stalker with the camera 😂😅🤣
Well it doesn’t do much. It’s so low! Lucy had NO wall and her house was just open.
beteeho 😂
beteeho .... Funny stuff! 🇺🇸🌉🌉🌉😎 📸🌉🌉🌉🌉🌉🌉🏠🏡🏡🏡🏡🏡
😂
lol
I really liked the house more prior to the remodel. It had so much character. Gorgeous home.
Same!
Beautiful home of Lucille Ball
It really is!
I remember driving past her house in 1988 , her upstairs window was open so we yelled, Hello Lucy .
Omg no way!!! I wonder if she heard you? That’s so funny!
She probably got that a lot!
That's probably why they built the wall
Beautiful home but I prefer the way it looked when Lucille Ball lived there.
I agree with you
Gerald Stidham me too
Me too
Me, too.
me too !
You’re commentary is NOT too much! Loved it!
Omg thanks so much. What an awesome compliment. :)
I was always surprised how accessible it seemed from the street. You could easily walk up and knock on the door.
I know!!! I was a little kid right before she died and my aunt told me that was Lucy’s house and I wanted to RUN to the front door and knock
That's how Lucy was able to buy this home, she walked up and knocked to see if it was for sale.
It's a shame what they've done to the exterior. It used to be SO beautiful and full of charm! I always thought that house (in it's former state with the black shutters and window boxes) was one of the most beautiful celebrity houses because it looked so homey and inviting...even though it was technically a mansion. Now it just looks like your standard cookie cutter Beverly Hills house. I also found it incredible that there were no walls, gates, or fences in the front...right up until Lucy died. Celebrities today could never get away with that kind of openness.
Isn't that incredible?
It was ruined. Awful.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I grew up on Alpine Ln. just a few blocks from where you are.
Very cool! I lived on Canon!!!!
I remember so well in the late 70's and 80's while living in LA and quite near to the Lucy home. While it is still recognizable it is quite different. As you say the entrance is very different and I don't ever remember the gate at the inner drive. You could always see a Rolls Royce in the drive. I was only in the house as a guest for a small dinner party once, however, I will always remember in fondly. Lucy was a great lady and an incredible talent. She will always be remembered. Now living in Palm Beach, Florida I look back on my LA days as some of the best times in my life.
Wow - that is amazing! I lived there and now near you also! Send me a private message! Tell us more about your visit inside the house. How was that?
I was invited in the 80’s by my best friends mom who was invited by her friend who was Lucy’s maid… I could not believe she had 2 living rooms… do you remember that?
I liked it better before it was remodeled it was nicer the way Lucy had it. she was a wonderful woman.Thank you for this video.Thanks for making it possible. God Bless.
I agree - I so agree with you.
you are 1 lucky man who got to see it in person :) thanks from Canada we love Lucy too..
darek flak hey thanks so much! It was close to where I lived so I saw the house regularly!
@@DrGariS have you met her..
Love the old house
Tracy Bryson wasn’t it beautiful?
Lots of big movie and TV stars back in the golden age of Hollywood actually lived in Beverly Hills. The stars who live in the LA area now are scattered from Santa Barbara down to Laguna Beach.
So true!
The front gates look original. The hearts give it away.
I liked the way it looked with Lucy❤️ Not remodeled on the outside.
Same!
What a gorgeous home. Loved seeing every angle and detail. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
So beautiful! Thank u for sharing! I'm a huge Lucy fan! I love upper videos! Thank you
TheLindyconner so happy you enjoyed!!! Feel free to share and subscribe!!!
I remember watching I Love Lucy since I was around six years old I had a sad childhood and watching I Love Lucy brought a ton of joy into my life. So I decided I had to give something back. When I was 23 years old around 1975 a friend of mine told me her address. That weekend I bought the biggest bouquet of flowers that I could carry and Atwood My Heart Beating A Thousand Miles a minute I walked up the walkway and knocked on the door figuring that the housekeeper would answer it and I would give her the flowers with a note on it and ask the person to please give it to Lucy. Well to my shock Lucy open the door herself and I didn't know what to say and she did know what to say but she just started crying and she said are those for me and I said yes and I thanked her for all those years of joy that she and the rest of the cast provided for me while I was a little kid. She gave me a big hug and I said I didn't want to take up any more of your time and that I left. But that's the day I will remember forever. Obviously. Thank you for this video and a trip down memory lane
Wow that’s truly an amazing story and I sure wish that could have happened to me. AmaIng!
It was a very special moment and I'm so glad I did it even though I was scared to death walk up to that house
Thank you for sharing🥰 I wish I can pass here one day
You should!
5am..just Discovered you and really enjoyed this!
GOTTA BE ME that’s a great comment and you made my day!!!! Also I just uploaded one on Elizabeth Montgomery’s place. Hope to see more comments from you! :)
Thank you for this wonderful video. I always adored Lucy and the whole gang. I grow up in the 60s and it was such a part of our lives especially in reruns. Thank you again this was so fun👍💕😜
Omg you’re so welcomed. Thanks for that wonderful comment!
I loved the video.I liked the front of the house when Lucy lived there it's still beautiful
Glad you enjoyed it
I was lucky enough to see it before modernization. So cool.😎🐾
That’s really amazing. I now live in the neighborhood and the funny thing is that when I was a little kid I wantEd get off of the car and knock on her door and my aunt told me she would kill me if I did that. I was in front of her home and I wish I would’ve bolted for the door!!! I regret not doing that.
@@DrGariS I did knock and asked for Desi jr. it’s when Dino, Desi, and Billy were a group. The maid said he wasn’t home. Then I went to Dean Martins house and saw kids playing basketball. Trippy🐾😎
I saw her maid in the doorway when I was 9 years old and we were touring Beverly Hills. I wanted to hang around and watch for Lucy but my parents had other ideas. Beautiful home BEFORE they re-modeled.
Wow how awesome is that
Thank you thank you thank you! I enjoyed this video very much as well as your commentary. Love looking at beautiful homes and I am a docent at a historical home built in 1864. I look forward to your next video
You are so welcome!
Beautiful neighborhood
Beth :D my favorite block in BH!!!!
Lisa B I lived a few blocks away and I was extremely comfortable there. Maybe it was like that 16 years ago - not sure. Beverly Hills is generally extremely clean. I lived south of SM Blvd and still super great to me. I’ve never loved living anywhere better. The BHPD was always great when I needed or worked with them.
Excellent!! Really enjoyed it! I thought it was prettier before the remodel!! When Lucy lived there!!
I totally agree!
I really enjoyed your video I admired all the old actresses and actors I hope you have more videos of all the old actors that we cherished so much thanks to guys like you we get to see iconic homes thank you very much thumbs up
Thank you so very much - glad you enjoyed
Miss her
Anthony Varricchio she was the best!
DrGariS wish I meet her
Anthony Varricchio. For me also. I wish!
The original mansion was gorgeous 👌🏼Thank you for the videoclip.
You’re so welcomed
Enjoyed this so much! Such nostalgia~ I love how you show different angles and views- I felt like I was actually there.
That’s why I did it. I’m so happy you liked it.
We honeymooned in CA 9/89, Lucy had passed earlier in the year. We walked up from Rodeo and I recall Gary’s Bentley in the driveway. Took the family a long time to sell it due to the economy, not like the prices today. Nice walking tour!
Wish they would have kept it
Very cool!
It's a very nice area very quiet and safe. ♥️
It really is!
I so loved your commentary & found you so interesting!! You have such thoughtful information and loved everything that you had to say concerning Lucy & Desi’s home. Great post/video!
Thank you so much! That is such a lovely comment and I appreciate it tremendously! I just uploaded a video on Elizabeth Montgomery's home, which is rarer :) Stay safe!
DrGariS “YOU ARE SO WELCOME!” I so loved your incredible story( I think of my dear mom who passed away two yrs ago, every time I see or hear anything pertaining to Lucille Ball! We all used to buy her gifts w/ “Lucy’s image on it!”) and I so loved “Lucy” myself. You have absolutely just the “coolest” most heart warming story too, about your interaction with her( or any ⭐️ Star)! Thanks again for your great post ! ❤️PS I absolutely will look at your video on Elizabeth Montgomery’s house. I soooo love seeing where stars used to live ( stars from the past) & all types of star’s homes, in movies or music, that are popular today too! I so would love to see homes where Annette Funicello, Sandra Dee, Walt Disney, Paul Anka, etc lived in their heyday ( & even now but only Paul Anka is still alive, sadly!). I love musical & movie stars from the 1950’s & 1960’s in particular!❤️God Bless!
You do such great videos! My fascination of California and famous people passed when all of my favorite actors and actresses did. What a WONDERFUL era it was! I would come there to walk with you though. You have respect, appreciation and a love of the place you live and the stories it holds. Only the best to you💯😘
I was in California in May of 1989, 1 month after Lucy passed away, it was a awesome home, and should have been restored not updated, we took a tour bus thru, wrote directions and drove back thru later, down the block is the alley way where the bum in down and out in Beverly Hills was found
Pontiac GrandPrix73 hey thanks for the comment. I know that house and it’s not far from Lexington/Roxbury but it is actually on Elevado and Bedford (I think). :)
Thank you for the tour!
California Gal I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I like Lucy's house before they remodeled it.
Iris Blanche I agree... it looks more austere now.
Agreed!
LOVE your content! Thank You!
Glad you enjoy it!
I seen that home a few years ago along with Jack Benny's very cool.
You actually "seen it"?
I love love Jack Benny would love to see his house and things about the old stars
I had Love every thing about Lucy evey one in my home as to my father he had to see it so when i was growing up i was sad when she pass but i know one day we all have to go my parents are gone that is why we have to enjoy while we are here on earth we don't take any thing with us if i see some joke about Lucy still love it favourite the never get no one like her again

You are so welcome
I’d love to see the inside floor plan of that house!!
Me too!!!!
So would all the crooks!
Erin Dinneen 😄😄😄😄
Love it, thanks for posting!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely beautiful !!
Thank you! Cheers!
It was great thank you! I like the house better before the new owners renovated it, so beautiful!
Thank you for the video my mother would have loved to watch this Lucy was my mum’s favourite actress... My mother died before RUclips came about to the world. She use to call my dad Mr Moonie 😆🇳🇿
I have that’s so funny. I’m so happy you liked it :)
Love it u showed all the way around and top of gate for backyard.
Awesome photo taken of Hollywood actors & actresses homes where they lived amazing photos
Jimmy Stuart I loved him and Javk Benny and of course Lucy ... she reminds me of my mom.
I've been at this house years ago. Me and my friend looked into the backyard from the alleyway. We had to stand on the rooftop of my car! Guest House in the backyard. Nice yard
Haha, sounds fun. Thanks for watching! :)
So cool... Great seeing more detailed view of it. They actually did a decent job remodeling it, while keeping it recognizable. I've sometime driven up and down Roxbury at night after work assignment I used to have in Beverly Hills - Dreaming, as some of us poor folks do. Had wondered where her house was. Imagine *how loaded* you have to be to remodel a house in Beverly Hills?!
Thanks for watching!
Wow I didn’t know all these famous people all lived on this street 😮That’s awesome ❤I do remember hearing Jack Benny was Lucy’s neighbor at one time ❤ I used to live in Ventura calif growing up so Hollywood was always my favorite and seeing where all the the stars lived was always exciting to me ❤ So thank you for taking me down memory lane from my younger years ❤
Thanks for watching. I live down the street from Lucy’s house. Thanks for watching
@@DrGariS Wow your lucky to be surrounded by all the old movie stars homes ❤️ I think I would just be on cloud 9 all the time 😍
Wow! Thank you 😊💖❤️
You’re welcome 😊
J. B.'S HOUSE IS GORGEOUS!!!
That 2nd house was nice
Loved your video . In my 20s I would drive by her house regularly .
Yeah I totally get it
Beautiful home, suits her! I'd be grateful for a tiny home/shed
It was nicer when she was in it
I really like it before the renovation . They should have left it the way it was.
Abbgale Dillon sane here! Almost everyone feels the same way!
The now hipped roof dormers on the edge of the roof replacing the original through the cornice gable-roofed dormers now look especially superfluous now that the eave or cornice extends right through them.
I love ❤️ watching Lucille ball great 👍 fan I Lucy’s house before
This is sobering an great at the same time to see these GREAT ACTORS homes,oh how I wish they where still here I would not have change anything the home of Lucy’s not one bit. I miss them all.!!!!!!!!
Im so happy you enjoyed this video. I have a few more if you want to look at them.
Very nice video her home is sure lovely bet she had many wonderful times there!
I hope she enjoyed it. It seems like she did in the 34 years of living there!
I love I love Lucy show ..👍👍♥️♥️ at one point of time was Lucille Ball's house haunted
Veronica Bigelow that’s what people keep saying but I have no evidence of it!
Great tour .
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice to see. Thank you
Super welcomed
I enjoyed seeing Lucy Ball house.
I grew up watching Lucy.
THE OLD LOOKED BETTER
Agreed!
Beverly Hills Love my favorite one fan Big Hollywood ⭐️ ❤
Wow such a beautiful place on a busy street
It really is!
The stark white paint was much prettier than the tan yellow on Lucy's house.
Robin Johnson I so agree with you!
That makes three of us!
Hallowed ground as far as I’m concerned. Thank you 😊 for this.
It’s a special home
85,000? Shit that was so cheap!!! If only they can be that much now, I'll buy one!
Right!!!!???
Well it's pretty cool seeing the outside of her house but I would like to see the inside
Me too👍👍👍👍
That would be cool
I remember seeing the house when we visited California in 1993.
By that time it was already remodeled
Beautiful homes.
It’s a nice neighborhood for sure
Awesome
Whatever a person accumulate on "Earth" you better enjoy it, because You can't take it with you!!!!!!!!!!!..
Facts! 😉
b Jupiter ..... Didn't one guy make his wife bury him with all his money? 💰 he took it with him! 😲 can't use it! 💵 but he took it! .... Lol 😆
@@bettyschneider5268 well if he took it to the grave with him, that was only til the service was over and then either the wife took it back or if she left it, the undertaker got it 😂
Lol, for damn sure
Which is why the house is still standing!
Beautiful home
Yes - a lovely location for sure
I’ve been to that house back in 1983 back then it didn’t have gates you could just walk up and knock on the door and that’s what me and my gf did and Lucy came to the door and we said Miss ball we love you and brought you some roses 🌹 and she said Thank you she looked very old to us 19 year olds but she was very kind and sweet ❤ I will never forget it ❤
Are you serious? You got to meet her at her house and she answered the door? No way!!!!
@@DrGariS Yep we sure did ! It was kinda late around 8 at night and other star seekers were walking around taking photos of her house and me and my gf just got the nerve to walk up and knock on the door 😳 I wouldn’t do that today to a famous persons house of course lol But for some reason back then and our age we didn’t think it was wrong! lol She was so sweet and she first opened the little peep door it was a little door in the door that had 3 or 4 medal slats in it that was shaped like a house 🏡 she opened that and said can I help you ! And then I said omg hi Miss Ball I am tricia and I am one of your biggest fans and me and my gf brought you a rose to give you and she said well hello girls so nice to meet you please leave it on my door step and I will get it in a bit she said she was In her robe 😳 And she couldn’t open the door like that ! We understood and said thank you so much for taking the time to talk with us! We left the rose ❤️ And we walked away ! We were on cloud 9 ❤️
@@Tricia2023that’s so amazing. WOW. Thats still a great interaction. I can only imagine what it must have been like back then. That’s crazy.
Thanks for highlighting my comment! Have a good day! 💒⛪⛪⛪🌈🐑🐏
Thank you too
Beautiful home. Saw it on a tour
Thank you!
Such a beautiful lovely area. I think my favourite is Jack Benny's house. Cause it's pink with black roof. Nothing like the others.
His is beautiful
