Bribe adult with blue house (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bungalow

'house' is the definition.
(bungalow is a kind of house)

'bribe adult with blue' is the wordplay.
'bribe' becomes 'bung' (I've seen this before).
'adult' becomes 'a' (abbreviation).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'blue' becomes 'low' (both can mean sad).
'bung'+'a'+'low'='BUNGALOW'

(Other definitions for bungalow that I've seen before include "Single-storey home" , "One-floor house" , "It may house" , "Single-storey house" , "cottage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
