import os

Path=r'C.......'

list=([m for m in os.listdir(Path) if m.endswith('.lyr') and os.path.isfile(os.path.join(Path, m))])

If you are interested in layers within layers as well, please see the recent post and script in my recent blog post.  The script also allows for the production of a text file containing the folder's layer information.
