Not that I've ever used an integral garage to store a car in (rather
than using it as a lockup).
In that case, mount the charger box on the house near where you'd park the
car. If you're not storing the car in or near the garage, there's no
dependency on supplying power to the garage. The charger is waterproof and
it's intended to go outside.
That assumes the available parking is adjacent to one's own home, rather
than someone else's.
The parking here

one garage/drive for the adjacent two-storey house, and another for its
terraced 3-storey neighbour.
