Hi there-

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I felt compelled to correct misinformation. The house you visited could not have been the Desilu Ranch as it was razed 20 plus years before you visited. See the following article: lucyfan dot com/stillweek107.html

For example, remember all of the mirrors in Lucy's bedroom with the rose wallpaper? Well, those mirrors are still there. And, the huge...long...bay windows in the den? They are still there. The cabinets and some of the tile is original. The Desilu Ranch is still there....it's just been added onto, that's all which makes it kinda' confusing as to which part is which. But, if you've seen pictures....you can tell pretty much. Also, from "A Home Movie" you can see bits too. And, yes, it is allllll built-up around the house now with some houses being very close. You just stand there and imagine what a view that Lucy & Desi had with their 5 acres, chickens, cow, dogs and cats! WOW!
As for the studio..."I Love Lucy" was never filmed at Universal Studios. It started out at "General Services Studios" which is on the corner of Romaine St. and Las Palmas in Hollywood. They filmed the first 2 years here from 1951-1953 and then they moved over to "Motion Picture Center" where they remained throughout the series. It was the most awesome experience to get INSIDE the first studio where they filmed it. I mean, not only on the lot but inside THE soundstage where Lucy said, "Hello Friends, I'm your Vitameatavegamin girl!" I've got pictures of the inside of that, inside her Ogden Drive house, inside of the Chatsworth house and much more if you guys would like to see them. Also have some of me and Lucie Arnaz, me and Fred Ball, me and Desi Jr, me and Frank Gorey and many of Carole Cook. Have you guys seen "A Home Movie"?
Peace, Love & Lucy~
Sherry
