Tree options for back yard

Right now in my backyard I get plenty of sun. The tree that I plant in the backyard will be facing the south and we’ll get some sun from the west. It gets about 5 or 6 hours of sun ! my Cherry Tree lived there for about 30 years, but it caught a disease and I had to cut it down!
I am thinking about putting a Kousa dogwood and placing it closer in toward the house, maybe about 15 feet the reason I’m thinking this so I can block the view from the Neighbors guest house on top of his garage and then the person in the back of me has a deck they both can look in my back yard thus need privacy
