Almost all of the coutyard villas I have seen, where the garage is parallel to the street, between Rt 44 and Rt 466. The driveways are constructed partially on the next door neighbor's property. So, to get access to your gate, you need to walk across part of your neighbor's driveway.

If you live in one of these houses, you should read the deed restriction document that describes, in great detail, the "driveway" easements and the "side yard" easements. You need to read them at least 5 times before you will really understand what they mean.
