Pranked seeing house brought down (6)
I believe the answer is:
hoaxed
'pranked' is the definition.
(a hoax is a prank or trick)
'house brought down' is the wordplay.
'house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'brought down' becomes 'axed' (axe can mean to chop or bring down).
'ho'+'axed'='HOAXED'
'seeing' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for hoaxed that I've seen before include "Taken for a ride" , "Fooled and swindled" , "Deceived or defrauded" , "Fooled or deceived" .)
