'nether region at home' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'bachelor-cum-escort finally' is the wordplay.
'bachelor' becomes 'BA' (Bachelor of Arts).
'cum' becomes 'semen' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'finally' indicates one should take the final letters.
The last letter of 'escort' is 't'.
'ba'+'semen'+'t'='BASEMENT'

'displays' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for basement that I've seen before include "Lowest floor of a building" , "Beats men up in cellar" , "room's full!" , "Floor below ground level" , "Underground room" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
