I believe the answer is:

driveway

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

'the road home' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'different view to be sitting in cart' is the wordplay.
'different' is an anagram indicator.
'to be sitting in' indicates putting letters inside.
'cart' becomes 'dray' (a cart without sides for delivering heavy loads).
'view' is an anagram of 'ivew'.
'ivew' inserted inside 'dray' is 'DRIVEWAY'.

'on' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
