doesn't have the same leaf or shape as a bradford pear and also a bradford pear doesn't produce anything but flowers.
Initially I'm thinking a cherry tree, but I don't know.

The fruit as I'll call it was tough to cut with some food scissors and doesn't seem to have a seed in the middle.

The leaves do look different. the Bradford has white flowers in the spring and turns red in the fall, also called the Callery Pear. The bradford is hard as a rock until the first frost and then it turns soft.

Wild crabapple ? Maybe ... Fruit meat looks too white to be cherry.

Didn't notice thorns.
I pulled up pictures of crabapple, but not sure that's what it is. I pass this house 4 times a day and it's 1/4 mile from my house where I've lived 29 years, never noticed it bloom like this.
