Settle in suburban estate (4)

I believe the answer is:

nest

'settle' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'in suburban estate' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'NEST' is hidden in the letters of 'suburban estate'.

(Other definitions for nest that I've seen before include "Cosy retreat" , "Accommodation for hobby, say" , "Sent to avian home" , "comfortable residence" , "Bird's house" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
