I am trying to get a string path from the selected directory using showDirectoryPicker(), I do not want to upload anything I just need the selected path.

Does broswer-fs-access have this feature? Or do you know how to get selected path from const dirHandle = await window.showDirectoryPicker() I am able to get the dirHandle but I cannot find a method or property that gives me the selected directory path.

This is not possible on purpose, please see https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access/issues/282 for the details.
