I would like to add a control to my app where the user can browse his local file system and select a directory. I would prefer to host this control on my main app window, and not do this via a pop-up dialog.

There isn’t one built in.
You can either use the WinForms file/folder browser, search Code Project or similar site for someone else’s implementation or write your own.
I’ve found one on Ookii Dialogs that includes some other standard dialogs.
