Villa Bellemaison, Architectural heritage monument in Höllriegelskreuth, Pullach, Germany.

Villa Bellemaison is an architectural monument in Pullach-Höllriegelskreuth featuring a two-story structure with mansard hipped roof and central protruding section. The building at Zugspitzstraße 15 retains its original characteristics despite contemporary modifications and additions.

The villa was built in 1908 for the poet Carl Sternheim to plans by his brother-in-law, architect Gustav von Cube, in the Louis-seize style. Sternheim lived there until 1912, when he sold the property after helping his father through bankruptcy and moved to Brussels. Linde AG bought it in 1985 and planned demolition, but the villa was placed under monument protection; in 1986 a glass-and-steel office annex was added on the north side.

The villa's name, Bellemaison, means "beautiful house" and it was built as a poet's residence for Carl Sternheim, the most elaborate such house built in Germany. Sternheim lived here from 1908 to 1912, and the marble fountain basin in the park is a detail visitors can still see.

The property sits on elevated banks of the Isar River, which affects how the building relates to its surroundings. Modern glass and steel additions are visually distinct from the original structure, making different sections easy to identify.

Linde AG bought the villa in 1985 intending to demolish it, but demolition never happened because the building was placed under monument protection in the meantime. The glass-and-steel office annex on the north side followed in 1986. The villa itself survived the bombing of the neighbouring industrial plants in World War II.
