Tree for screening

Hi, we would like to plant a tree to screen out the view of a house behind us. We'd place it so it doesn't affect them.

We'd prefer an evergreen, we already havd a eucalyptus but I'm not a fan. I was wondering about a strawberry tree, but I'm concened that they don't grow very quickly. We definitely vdontbwant a conifer.

Ideally we'd like a tree with a good, thick crown to provide as much screening as possible, and which is fast growing. The other possibility, although its deciduous, is a linden tree but I don't know how easy they are to grow.

Any recommendations please?
