Simple question; party in my campaign is in Magnimar seeking the Pathfinders and are about to head to talk to Sheila.
I'm sure some PFS module has a map of the manor (I know it's briefly described in Return of the Runelords) but does a map/layout/detailed description exist somewhere that anyone is aware of?
Also, I am not up to date on PFS. Has Sheila done anything super important recently that would line up with around Rusthenge timeframe? I strive to keep my campaigns relatively canon to existing lore.

I don't think Shiela's done anything beyond typical Venture Captain stuff in the last year or two. She handed out a few missions in season 5, but I don't think she'd see the need to bring them up. I guess you might mention increased security since Heidmarch Manor was burgled in season 5?
Hillary Murphy Moon did find and annotate this map of the lodge for the aforementioned break in scenario.

Yo, thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed.
Lifesaver there.DO you know what module this was in?
EDIT: FOUND IT! It seems to originate from Pathfinder Chronicles - Seekers of Secrets: A Guide to the Pathfinder Society.
Has detailed descriptions of each area in that pdf too. Glad I kept so much of my ancient pf1e stuff!

If you're looking for the source for the map I linked in the previous post, my advice would be to PM Hillary here. She's pretty active on the PFS forums, so she can probably help you out.
It might be in Heidmarch Heist, which is the aforementioned break in scenario?
I ran that as a player rather than a GM so I don't know if the map is in the scenario or not. The comments on the scenario page link to some additional resources that might be useful as well (aside from the map that Squark already got you).
Heidmarch Manor was also in Shattered Star, though I'm not sure if there was a map in it.

The current official map of Heidmarch Manor
The material in Seekers of Secrets is a little bit riddled with some lore errors, alas (including giving a few NPCs associated with the place the wrong classes), particularly in how it presented the map of the manor as being int he middle of a wilderness type area when the manor is in fact located in the city of Magnimar and not surrounded by woodlands or as sprawling an estate as the map from Seekers of Secrets proposed. Of course, feel free to use that map if you want, but if you're looking for the "official map" of the manor as it currently exists in Magnimar's Alabaster District, we were going to publish it in the first volume of the Shattered Star Adventure Path (Shards of Sin) but didn't have room.
So instead we published it in the Shattered Star Player's Guide, which can be found here.
The map of the manor found on page 7 of that free PDF is the official map of the manor for us, as its outline matches the footprint on the larger map of Magnimar.

It is always pleasant to have one of the staff lend a hand in such matters; thank you James!
As an aside, I believe there is a generic Manor House map with the first and second stories on the two sides of the flip map. Hmmm, I am looking in the store and have come up with NOBLE ESTATE. Which is only available as a PDF.

If you want a physical map, it has been reprinted as a Flip Mat Classic which is currently available.
It's a little confusing, but when they do reprints, they put them in their Classics line, which is a different SKU. I suspect they do it that way so that they don't autoship them to people with Map Subscriptions.

I am insanely impressed with your ability to remember all this info and also thankful! I didn't even think to check a player's guide. Thank you so much! I would absolutely pay for a massive comprehensive book of maps of important buildings, btw. 'Lost Omens: A Bunch of Significant Houses' would be an instant purchase.
