Constructed by Henry William Gage, 'Gage's Row' is a Tasmanian's Heritage Listed stone and brick cottage from the old colonial period of early Tasmanian architecture. It was famously described by E.G. Robertson and E.N. Craig in their book Early house of Northern Tasmania as "an attractive symmetrical early brick building".
Early in 1836, Henry Gage, along with many other convicts, was sent to Campbell Town to construct a bridge (known as Red Bridge) to span the Elizabeth River.
In 1837 Gage was freed from servitude and decided to settle in Campbell Town. He used his skill set as a carpenter and joiner to build several houses in Pedder Street known as 'Gage's Row'. Henry Gage owned up to six properties in Campbell Town, including three in Pedder Street, and contributed to the early development and construction of buildings in Campbell Town.
A credit to the current owner, 'Gage's Row' has been meticulously maintained, possessing all the features you'd expect in a cottage of this. Offering:
- Two spacious bedrooms
- Formal lounge room
- Galley kitchen featuring timber cabinetry and butler's pantry
- Cozy dining/living area with an enclosed woodfire for warmth
- Traditional bathroom with clawfoot bathtub
- Attached greenhouse/storage area

Set upon a 2.49 acres allotment, the current owner has created a Balinese inspired garden offering peaceful relaxation for the new owners. Divided into several areas, there are various plants from deciduous and native trees to a prolific orchard, even a rabbit hutch and cage tucked sweetly away.
Buyers will appreciate the flexibility offered by the art/mediation studio, undercover patio and entertaining area complete with pizza oven. A raised vegetable patch with various secure gardens sheds plus woodshed and double lock-up garage completes the total storage offered.
