About Marin County Realtor Lydia Treadway
She comes from Dubrovnik, Croatia, a beautiful part of the world on the Adriatic Sea across from Italy. It is an ancient city that has had influence from the Romans, Venice, Napoleon, and many cross currents of history. This left a mix of cultures and languages. In her early adult years she moved to Paris, then Cape Cod, San Francisco, Bahrain, London, Nashville, and then Marin County. These places brought her many interesting experiences including antiquing, interior decoration, and the restoration of an old Victorian home in South Kensington. Nashville gave her the enjoyment of country music and horses. Art continued to be her passion since childhood and she continued to paint in all these places. Lydia knows a lot about architecture and building. Her father was a master mason and contractor. She learned about quality workmanship very early in life and now can do many building projects herself. Recently she did the tile in our bathrooms and a stone floor in our family room.
Lydia is a mother with two sons, and her husband has his three children. Raising five children under one roof as a blended family has been a challenge! We are so glad to see the kids prosper now as independent successful adults. They attended universities from Oregon to Yale, St. Mary’s to UC Berkeley, and the US Naval Academy. They live all over the US from coast to coast and one son still has tours in Iraq and the Middle East with the military.
Frank and Lydia team together in the Rose and vegetable garden too! They both enjoy good cooking and wine tasting shared with friends. Trout fishing is another passion and we take trips to different lakes and streams in the mountains of California, Oregon and Nevada. This is a very brief sketch of Lydia’s background. We have some photos to show you who we are. Give us a call and let’s meet and work together. We enjoy helping people find a home or sell and discover their own new adventures!

Lydia
wasn’t always a Marin county Realtor. She loves her work
and is very happy with it. “Real Estate has been very very good
to me!” And
she meets some nice people who do become friends as well as continuing
clients. What makes her a success in this profession? To answer this
we must go back in time and look at the influences that make Lydia
unique, a one-of-a kind person.
Lydia’s education includes a Master of Fine Arts degree from
the San Francisco Art Institute. She is a painter and owned an Art
Gallery in San Anselmo. She was founder and Chairman of the San Anselmo
Art Commission. Lydia was responsible for establishing an Annual Student
Art Festival for all the children in Ross Valley. We helped raise scholarship
funds for High School graduates in the arts and all children who entered
the Festival got prizes and recognition. After this work, Lydia served
on the Board of Directors for San Domenico private school. She is Vice
President for the Marin Rose Society and grows beautiful roses for
show. Gardening is an artistic endeavor and brings beauty inside the
home with cut flowers and arrangements. We urge you to join the Marin
Art and Garden Center and the Marin Rose Society for lots of fun and
a wonderful education on roses. Lydia is a Consulting Rosarian for
the American Rose Society and is happy to answer your questions on
rose culture. Give her a call or email. This is a free service!
Lydia’s husband, Frank, is very involved in assisting her Real
Estate work. He is a “retired” child psychologist who does
the work in the office, keeps the emails flowing and the web site current.
This is a team effort and you may have occasion to communicate with
Frank. We usually can get the support and information you need to move
ahead on your deal quickly because we work together and can respond
right away.
