After paying a visit to the Lucille Ball museum and National Comedy Center in the late performer's hometown of Jamestown, New York, I Love Lucy mega-fans might want to head across the country to Indian Wells, California. Located about three hours east of Los Angeles in the Coachella Valley, the city is home to Ball's former residence—and it's available for rent.

Ball shared the home with her I Love Lucy co-star, Desi Arnaz, whom she was married to for 20 years until their divorce in 1960. The decor is far from dated, though. This three-bedroom, three-bathroom home was remodeled in 2012 in a "vintage mid-century modern" style. Plus, the property contains "new everything," according to the listing on rental site Vrbo.

That includes king-sized beds and en suite bathrooms with sunken, Roman-style showers that double as bathtubs. There's also an outdoor patio and pool, making it the perfect place to host a party or cookout. (But if you prefer a more relaxed evening, you can watch I Love Lucy re-runs on the TV outdoors, or perhaps on the 60-inch flatscreen in the living room.)

The property boasts views of the surrounding mountains and is within walking distance of a country club and two "world-famous" PGA golf courses. Check out some photos of the property below, and visit Vrbo's website if you're interested in booking this property at an average cost of $500 per night.
