I believe the answer is:

burglar

'house discontentment caused by such a criminal?' is the definition.
(someone who removes the contents of a house)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for burglar that I've seen before include "A stealer from homes" , "Housebreaker" , "Thieving intruder" , "He takes" , "Building robber" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
