GoogleMaps.LocationServices NuGet package doesn't have method to find street address. Try the below code.

const string API_ADDRESS_FROM_LATLONG = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?latlng={0},{1}&sensor=false";

public void GetAddressFromLatLong(string Lat, string Long)
{
    try 
    {           
        var webClient = new WebClient();
        webClient.DownloadStringAsync(new Uri(string.Format(API_ADDRESS_FROM_LATLONG, Lat, Long)));
        webClient.DownloadStringCompleted += webClient_DownloadStringCompleted;
    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
    }
}

void webClient_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(e.Result);
        var Address = doc.Descendants("result").FirstOrDefault().Descendants("formatted_address").FirstOrDefault().Value;
        MessageBox.Show(Address);
    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
    }
}
