I live in Pacific Northwest and this tree is in our backyard
Here is the photo of its leaves
Do you know what tree is it?
It doesn't look that nice. It's not evergreen and quite trashy in the winter.

It appears to be a Madrone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbutus_menziesii); it is loved or despised in equal amounts, some would consider you are fortunate to have a mature specimen. Certainly a distinctive tree, see if the description of the Madrone coincides with your tree.

I doubt it as this one has no berries. Plus it is not evergreen. Leaves falling down are trashy. However the white flowers do look like it en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbutus_menziesii#/media/…– HP.Commented Jul 23, 2019 at 22:40

Since it has flowers, these usually lead to fruits of some kind unless lacking suitable pollinator. It would be a helpful clue if you could describe any fruits found, or a closeup of the flowers. Commented Jul 24, 2019 at 10:47
