A 1920s Chicago penthouse with one-of-a-kind features that was once owned by a Hollywood starlet has hit the market.
A five-bedroom, 7,750-square-foot townhouse built in 1927 and first owned by silent-film actress Colleen Moore has been listed for $4,350,000.
The property comes with a two-story living room that includes a wood-burning fireplace, linenfold paneling, a plaster ornamental barrel vault ceiling and oversized windows that open out onto a 61-foot private terrace.
Further inside, the dining room seats 22 people at the main table and comes with a sunroom, ideal for cozier parties.

The multi-story townhouse also has a paneled library that is fitted with another wood-burning fireplace and five full baths as well as two half baths.
But it is the original speakeasy-style bar hidden away in the library that has caught most people's attention.
Ames described: 'The library has a bookcase with fake books. Behind it is a speakeasy that was probably built during the Prohibition era and is now a bar area.'
Another bar has also been built at the property in the original one's style more recently.

It also has a butler's pantry along with a breakfast area and adjoins the family room and an office, both with custom built-ins and a beamed ceiling and a gas fireplace.
Ames noted: 'The kitchen, family room, and office are all open but connected. It has a neat family setup.'
The house has also been updated with 21st century modifications and comes with dual laundry centers, an upstairs playroom and a temperature-controlled wine closet.
Furthermore, the primary bedroom includes a gas fireplace, dual dressing rooms and a stunning bath fit with massive marble slabs
