Great answers - not!
It really depends on how high your house is... how big your garden is... are there any fences/hedges....does it have any other high buildings and trees surrounding it...how far north you are/near the equator you are....and which hemisphere you are in...
Furthermore... we get the sun on every garden every day during the hours of daylight whether it is cloudy or not...
I can only assume that you mean "direct" sunlight...and assume that you are in the northern hemisphere.... in which case... your garden is the same as my front garden and you will get sunshine in the morning until about an hour before midday

North = Shade all day
East = Sun, first thing in the morning
South = Sun all day
West = Sun all afternoon
~ so your North-east facing garden will get sun mostly in the MORNING.
Plantwise - beware of late frosts causing damage to early flowers & buds, in an East-facing garden.

My garden faces exactly the same direction as yours. During the spring and summer months, I have full sun against the back of the house and garden, assuming it's not cloudy, from daybreak until 11AM. During the warmest hours of the day it's shaded, which I assure you is a welcome relief on a hot afternoon. By 4PM, the sun has moved on sufficiently so that the northern bit of the garden is in full sunshine again. Toward the middle and back of the garden, the sun has no problem in reaching that area during all hours of the daytime because ... the sun is waaaay higher in the sky than my house, and therefore the house does not obstruct the sun. In other words, you shouldn't worry about your house creating an eclipse into your garden.

Stand in your garden and face east. Then slowly turn to your right till you're facing west - this is the path the sun will take during the day, so you can work out where the sun will shine on your garden.

That must be the worst orientation you can get. In mid summer you will get morning sun (early) and late evening sun probably after 7 or 8 at night.

I would say you will get it very early in the morning as the sun is coming up

You'll get the early morning sun, and mainly in the summer. Winter days you'll probably not get much sunshine in your garden at all.
