'tasteless dwelling' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'1900 soon occupied by spanish agreement' is the wordplay.
'1900' becomes 'mcm' (I've seen this in another clue).
'soon' becomes 'anon' (synonyms).
'occupied by' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters occupy or enter the word).
'spanish agreement' becomes 'si' (Spanish for yes).
'anon' going around 'si' is 'ansion'.
'mcm'+'ansion'='MCMANSION'

'from' is the link.
