Domestic servant, we hear, not having come from a factory (8)

I believe the answer is:
homemade
'not having come from a factory' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'domestic servant we hear' is the wordplay.
'domestic' becomes 'home' (similar in meaning).
'servant' becomes 'maid' (maid is a type of servant).
'we hear' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'maid' is a homophone of 'made'.
'home'+'made'='HOMEMADE'
Can you help me to learn more?
