If you want a charging station in your home it will cost you thousands of dollars , it depends where the power comes into your home and you want a cable long enough to keep the car away from your home

I have resistance heating in an air handler in my garage.

A thermostat-controlled relay smart box could allow for 50A 240V supply to a car charger in the garage.

The Green Zealots need to realize the importance of in-home power demand management. The refrigerator, stove, oven, water heater, and HVAC all need to get along.

And, if you are an entitled, self-important jerk, just park your car on the street and run that long cable across the sidewalk to your car. Be sure to put the cable where people can trip over it.
