Former RadioShack CEO Len Roberts is auctioning off his 12,000-square-foot Fort Worth estate for a starting price of $2.5 million.After wrapping up his extravagant estate just west of Texas Christian University in 2004, Len Roberts let neighbors inside to thank them for dealing with five years of construction noise and disruptions.
The estate was designed by architect Don Wheaton. Sandra Sampson Interiors worked on the interior design. It totals 12,000 square feet of livable space as well as 4,000 square feet of unfinished space on the third floor and two separate garages for five cars. “It was ornate,” Roberts said. “We literally researched and found the plans to the Marbro Theatre, and we duplicated it.”“I will tell you this modestly, because as a CEO, of course, I’ve been into many, many homes in the Dallas-Fort Worth area; like many big homes,” Roberts said. “I’ve not seen a home theater like ours.”“There’s not a lot of properties in Fort Worth that have a view,” said Roberts’ real estate agent, Martha Williams of Williams Trew in Fort Worth. “That’s really hard to find.
Roberts led RadioShack as president starting in 1993 and became CEO in 1998. Before that, he led Shoney’s in the early 90s and Arby’s in the 80s. He also served as chairman of United Way of America. “The days of the big dinners and galas are over, and we just wanted to simplify our lives,” Roberts said. “It was our dream home, and it really was time for us to move on.”
