There is an evergreen climbing hydrangea that would look beautiful against your house but whose eventual size is about 20 feet. It's a very slow grower though. Mine is blooming now. They've been in the ground for about 5 years and are only 3 feet tall.

Here's a photo of mine starting to bloom now but it will need a larger support eventually. My guess is that you could keep it in line with good pruning right after the flowers bloom however.

Edited to say that the place that sells them says that they will support themselves.
