This structure sounds like a pergola. According to the State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008, your neighbour’s structure could be illegal in a couple of ways (above the roof gutter and reaching the lot boundary). I suggest contacting your local council as well as your strata manager with your concerns.
