About to get a new house (7)
I believe the answer is:
cottage
'house' is the definition.
(I know that cottage is a type of house)
'about to get a new' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 'c' (abbreviation for circa).
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'to'+'get'+'a'='togeta'
'togeta' with letters rearranged gives 'ottage'.
'c'+'ottage'='COTTAGE'
(Other definitions for cottage that I've seen before include "To make a home" , "bungalow" , "Small house, in the country say" , "building" , "Small home" .)
