Finding mouse coordinates in console

After some searching, i couldn't find anything on how to do this. I need the mouse coordinates within the console app. Not just anywhere on the screen. I'm planning on making interactable buttons in a console application and my plan is to wait for a mouse click and if the current mouse position is in the button position, then do blahblahblah.

So back to the original question, does anyone know how to do this? (i am fully aware that there are console gui libraries but i can't understand it's confusing documentation)

If you mean this:

var relativePoint = this.PointToClient(Cursor.Position);
