Vanmali Bhavan, 10th Lane, Khetwadi, Mumbai, India.
This was where Maharaj lived. The room where the discourses were given was a loft above the family living area. A small room around 10'x20'. One must climb a narrow and steep staircase to get to it. Today some of his relatives live here. The popular landmark for the building is a public toilet opposite to it. You may also refer to the pictures below. Maharaj lived as an ordinary man, and only a very few people in the neighborhood know that such a great sage lived here.

I am in Cehnai..Wanting to go to maharaj's house in Mumbai. How is it maintained now?
Not sure who lives there. You may contact here and inquire https://sri-nisargadatta-maharaj.blogspot.com/2014/12/nisargadatta-adhyatma-kendra-mumbai.html
Whoever has landed up on this page and is looking for guidance and direction on how to get there:
I recently went to Maharaj's blessed home on 12th January, 2024. As per the conversations I had, his elder brother's family maintains the house. It is their residential space but they keep it open for the public from 12pm-8pm.
While the address mentions 10th Khetwadi Lane, a quicker and more helpful alternative is to ask for Alfred Talkies and enter the lane right next to it. The building is the second or third one - you can ask any of the shops present there for Vanmali Building. It prevents you from taking the roundabout longer route. :)
Don't forget to spend some time to meditate. Despite the years that have passed, our Beloved Maharaj is very much Present.
Om Sadguruve Namah.
Thank you Sameer. I finally did go. Was a little disappointed since they had converted it into children's bedroom. A few kids were playing video games. Sat and meditated for cosometime. Will post pictures.🙏
I am planning to visit this August and will update my comment after visiting. If anyone visits beforehand or is planning on also visiting in August, please post a comment.
