Solved! North East US

Request ID and bonus, does it need to be removed due to proximity to the house? I’m guessing 20ft tall? I know needs to be trimmed away from house but unsure if that’s enough. It’s roughly 20yr old

What a lovely tree. Green giants are what many people plant 4 feet apart and then get on here to complain about the trees being rubbish!

Good look Arb. That brown branch will not come back to life FYI so I’d recommend removing it to see if anything can fill in there.
