Personal assistant gets fine fabric for grand house (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

palace

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'grand house' is the definition.
'palace' can be an answer for 'house' (palace is a kind of house). I am not certain of the 'grand' bit.

'personal assistant gets fine fabric' is the wordplay.
'personal assistant' becomes 'pa'.
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'fine fabric' becomes 'lace' (I've seen this before).
'pa'+'lace'='PALACE'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for palace that I've seen before include "Grand building" , "Royal dwelling" , "Royal house" , "football team" , "Royal building" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
