The $4.5 million property at 20031 Rock Springs Road features a 5,600-square-foot hay barn, 576-square-foot shop, a four-bedroom main house and a three-bedroom guest house. <\/p>\n<p>It also includes a permit for 250 cows to graze on the most secretive, high-profile Air Force base in the United States.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The farm is currently owned by Steve and Glenda Medlin, who bought the property in 1973, before the Air Force claimed 89,000 acres of public land in the area, including some which Medlin\u2019s cattle had been grazing on, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/v7m8yj\/for-45-million-you-can-live-beside-area-51\">Vice reported<\/a>.
