  • The bookstore just 20 minutes from (station name) shut down recently.

  • The bookstore close to my place closed down the other day.

In the first example, giving a reference point - the station name - would be good to clarify the location and the proximity of the bookstore to other locations. Saying "around the corner" or "close to my house" is good if it is very clear and there is only one bookstore, or you may need to give more details. Or, to express this in a very casual way you can use the second example, which assumes the person you are speaking with knows the neighbourhood quite well. Using the term "the other day" also gives a time frame of when, that it was recently, but you may not know the exact date.
一つ目の例では基準点(駅名)を示しています。これで、本屋の位置がより明確になります。 「around the corner」や「close to my house」は本屋が1件しかないときに使えます。そうでないときは、より具体的に言った方がいいかもしれません。 カジュアルに表すなら、二つ目の例が使えます。これは、相手がその地域のことをよく知っていることを前提とした言い方です。 「the other day(先日)」は時間を表します。ただ、正確な日付は分かりません。

  • The station closest to my home had a bookstore that closed down.

  • The bookstore that was at the closest station to my house, shut down.

"Closed down" and "shut down" can be used to say something has closed, not opening anymore in the future.
"closed down" と "shut down" は、お店が廃業したときに使うことができます。

  • The book store that is located at the station near my house has shut down.

"The book store that is located at the station near my house has shut down." A 'bookstore' is a term used to describe a shop that will sell and/or rent books, very similar if not the same as a library. this shop is located at the station, meaning it is within the station. the station is located near/close to ones house. The shop has 'shut down' which is implying that it has been closed permanently.
"The book store that is located at the station near my house has shut down."(家の近くの駅にあった本屋がつぶれました) 'bookstore'(本屋)は本を売ったりレンタルするお店をいいます。'library'(図書館)とよく似ています。 この店は 'located at the station'、つまり駅の中にあります。 この駅は話し手の家の近くにあります。 このお店は 'shut down' しました。これは「恒久的に閉店した」というニュアンスです。

  • The bookstore which was around the nearest station from my house closed down.

「私の家から一番近い駅の辺りにあった本屋がつぶれた」 関係代名詞which以下で、本屋について説明しています。 "be around 〜" は「〜の辺りにある、〜の近くにある」ということを表します。 "the nearest A from B" は「Bから一番近い/近くにあるA」となります。
