The house before the flood
RISING ABOVE THE FLOOD WHEN THE catastrophic floods tore through the Tweed in 2022, Alicia and Tim Sullivan lost their home on Tweed Valley Way, two cars, their belongings and almost their hope. The family home on the floodplain at Condong was purchased just three years earlier in 2019 and felt the full
brunt of the flood. They were left holding their twomonth-old daughter Stevie and facing a monumental decision to start over or walk away. Three years on, the Sullivans have just completed one of the most ambitious and impressive flood-resilient rebuilds in the Northern Rivers, thanks in part to support from the
NSW Reconstruction Authority (RA), insurance, and their own determination to stay in a community they love. “We love where we live, but we knew we couldn’t rebuild the same way. We had to look up and plan smarter,” Alicia told The Weekly during a visit to their home. With Alicia’s design vision and
Tim’s building and carpentry skills, the couple tore the old property right back to the dirt and started again. Their new home now stands proudly a full metre above the 2022 flood peak with a suspended concrete floor, flood-resilient materials and a layout built to endure future climate extremes.
