'to residence' is the definition.
(home is a kind of residence)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for home that I've seen before include "It's where the heart is, it's said" , "Residence" , "goal" , "Place of origin" , "Place of dwelling" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
