A new-ish, well-maintained vehicle with new tires, fresh oil change etc, if it’s left dormant & undriven untouched in a residential driveway for 1 year, will it be driveable after 1 yr?

Many things and factors to consider. Rodents may chew the wires off, electronics may corrode, plus, everything others cited. All in all, I have stored a vehicle for almost two years without any precautions and drove it without any problems.

I’m surprised you didn’t face issues like dead battery or damaged tires.
