To park outside someone else's house?

Finally passed my test and excitedly bought a new car.
I live in terraced houses with no drive.
Parking is terrible and the neighbours have 2-3 cars between them.
Over the road is a elderly lady and she has no cars and space for 2 cars easily as the house next door is vacant.
I parked my car outside (which is directly opposite my house).
I get in my car this morning to drive to work and she bangs on my window..
Do not park there again as I couldn't get to town this morning as my taxi couldn't park at my door (there was room behind my car and the car wasn't blocking her front door.
Am I in the wrong here?

Bet you get a note on your car for parking in the dead end bit, from someone else territorial, or because you are making it hard to turn!

Does no one else park on the opposite side of the street?
Does it make it hard to reverse if someone is parked there?
Or make the street too narrow for cars to drive at normal speed?
Do your neighbours park 3 minutes away if they can’t get a space?
Yes to the dead end bit being for turning! Someone else will get annoyed.
These questions aside still don’t think yabu.
