Only half a house? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

semi

I believe this is a double definition.

'only half' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a house?' is the second definition.
(short for semi-detached)

(Other definitions for semi that I've seen before include "Prefix denoting half" , "Residence" , "The last but one round" , "House sharing a wall" , "House attached to one other" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
