A six-bedroom, 10,161-square-foot contemporary-style mansion in Hinsdale whose owner once had sought $9.5 million for it sold on Wednesday for $2.9715 million.
Constructed in 2008 with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that wrap around an outdoor lap pool on three sides, the mansion is reminiscent of the kind of home found in Los Angeles’ Hollywood Hills. Seller Mats Lederhausen, a former McDonald’s executive who later was chairman of Chipotle and then co-founded Roti Modern Mediterranean, bought the property in 2004 for $2.5 million and then built the mansion.
Lederhausen first listed the mansion in 2013 for $9.5 million. He cut his asking price the following year to $8.3 million and then to $7.4 million. In 2015, he lowered his asking price to $7 million and then to $6.45 million. He relisted it in 2016 for $5.495 million before taking it off the market for more than 18 months.
Lederhausen placed the mansion back on the market in May 2018 for $3.995 million, and he found a buyer in March.
The mansion has 51/2 baths, a floating staircase, stainless steel railings and window frames, and a lower level with an exercise room, a steam room, a wine closet and a golf simulator room. The mansion backs up to the southeast Hinsdale pond.
Public records do not yet identify the buyer. Listing agent Dawn McKenna declined to comment on the sale.
