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

'suburban home' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'in yosemite' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SEMI' is hidden within 'yosemite'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for semi that I've seen before include "Not quite the biggest tie" , "half would do!" , "Residence" , "home perhaps" , "House sharing a wall" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
