As requested, i think i have got all angles covered. please ignore the temporary chicken run i haven't dismantled it yet. My plants are all in pots until i decide where to plant them and the red robin is for the front garden. The sun rises at the back of the house and sets in the front of the house.
Well, I would agree with myself (I often do!) that some small habit trees round the edge to perhaps double to treble the height of that fence, would really improve your privacy, and that sun pattern sounds ideal, because in high summer as it is coming in from the side, you will get plenty enough sunshine to give a variety of planting opportunities. I would plant a taller tree where your greenhouse is, because that other house is shading anyway, so your garden would be no more shady, but the bland expanse of brickwork would be lost, but then to the right of it, maybe go with shrubs not much taller than the fence because in picture four, it is nice that the early season sun is streaming through there, and you have nothing there that you need to mask. Taller narrow stuff again where that white box is near your patio doors, again because the house next door is shading there anyway, and you really don't want those windows overlooking you, but it would need to not be something deep at base level, so that you don't open your patio doors onto a lot of branches.
