The majority of homes (in England) have a garage (40%)

Of which perhaps a half are too narrow to accommodate a car with
side-impact doors, and most of the rest are used as a shed.

There is often hard standing in front of the garage so even if the car
isn't under cover it is off the street and can be charged.

That depends when the house was constructed. There was a trend perhaps
10-15 years ago for planners to restrict the hard-standing to less than
a car-length (generally by having really short front 'gardens')

There are also semi-detached houses that share a drive with the unattached
next door, have garages behind the house and the gap between the houses is
too narrow and lots of other examples which will be awkward or impossible
for an EV charger to be be usable but it's probably still possible to
install an EV charger at the majority of homes.
