KEY POINTS:
One of the country's largest freehold high-country stations has been sold to New Zealanders who plan to keep farming the land.
The current owners, the Weatherall family, were happy the 8322ha Lake Ohau Station would remain in local hands, the Otago Daily Times reported.
The station stretches from the western shores of Lake Ohau to the 2220m-high peak of Mt Peterson.
