Is it an offense to drive a car on private property under the influence of alcohol?

I have reversed my car from private property into my garage whilst being probably over the limit. I assumed it was legal because I was on private property.

It is only an offence on "a road or other public place". Therefore it would be an offence on a privately-owned area to which the public have access, such as a pub or supermarket car park, but not from your driveway into your garage.
