When the car comes in give a wave – Father’s home (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vicarage

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

'home' is the definition.
(vicarage is a kind of home)

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

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for vicarage that I've seen before include "House of a member of the clergy" , "house near church?" , "Church accommodation" , "Revs will get one such home" , "House of a C of E clergyman" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
