Vivian Vance in LA - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone know where Vivian Vance lived/stayed in LA during her years on I Love Lucy? We all have locations for Desi and Lucy (Chatsworth, then Beverly Hills) and William Frawley (the Knickerbocker in Hollywood) but no location for Vance during the show. Did she live in LA? Or did she commute? I know during her time on later Lucy shows she commuted from the East coast, where she lived with her husband. And I know that her last years were spent up in northern CA with her husband and one of her sisters. But I haven't heard anything about her whereabouts during the actual filming of ILL. I've visited the rest of the cast's former residences and would love to be able to do so with Vivian as well. Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer some insight!

In, "The Other Side of Ethel Mertz: The Life Story of Vivian Vance", it says that during the show's second season Vivian and her husband moved into a Spanish-style house in the Pacific Palisades section of LA.

This house in the Pacific Palisades was previously owned by Lionel Barrymore. It was located at 629 Frontera Drive.
