Girl’s cosy home, close to Chelsea (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nesta

'girl's' is the definition.

'cosy home close to chelsea' is the wordplay.
'cosy home' becomes 'nest'.
'close to' suggests the final letters (the 'close' to the word).
The final letter of 'chelsea' is 'a'.
'nest'+'a'='NESTA'

(Other definitions for nesta that I've seen before include "woman" , "girl" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
