You will need to refer to the terms of your lease to see if it requires you to get consent or prevents you from cutting down the tree. Even if the front garden is demised to you under your lease you may still require consent or be prevent from cutting down the tree.
In addition to the lease, the tree could be protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO). You may wish to speak to your Local Council or a specialist organisation such as Planning Aid regarding this.
