Your house is assessed based on the market value of the property, not services received. That is the way it is throughout the state and in most other states. If you believe that the assessed value of your house is well above market value then you should talk to the assessor in your town.
There are a lot of high value properties on private roads, the market value determined by what people are willing to pay for property in that location.
