The previous owner bought out the freehold, but the additional covenants on the deed still apply.
It's in a development, with a security gate, private lampposts, topiary, refuse collection etc.
Apparently it's quite common for modern developments with shared amenities to require a service charge. I'd never buy one again though.https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/freeholders-estate-and-service-charges
