In a less westernised way, you may say,

"請問你的家怎麼走?"

  • Of course there are multiple ways to ask this simple question which is normally spoken. It also boils down to how well you are acquainted with the listener, which would govern the degree of formality of the words, phrases used. It can range from 你家在哪儿, (where is your home), to a breathless 20 worded dissertation. Mar 2, 2020 at 12:21

                    [Please] [tell] [me] [how to] [get to] [your] [house].
simplified Chinese     请      告诉  我     怎么      去      你的   住所(房子,居住的地方,或家)
traditional Chinese    請      告訴  我     怎麼      去      你的   住所(房子,居住的地方,或家)

In Pinyin(拼音):

请       告     诉     我     怎     么     去    你     的     住     所
qing(3)  gao(4) su(4) wo(3)  zen(3) me(1)  qu(4) ni(3)  de(1) zhu(4) suo(3)

In English, I think house is not home, and it's the same in case of Chinese.

The above answer is in Mandarin not Cantonese or any other Chinese dialect.

  • 所 is pronounced as "suo(3)"

What's the matter of these simple question?

Please give me your address

请给我你的地址。

If you want to be more specific en-route.

How to get to your place if I start from location X

如果从 X 点出发, 要如何走才能到你家。

HOWEVER, if you really ask something ambiguous such as "Please tell me how to get to your house? "

Walk !

用脚走 !
