How can I simulate a ViewCell in a TableSection with a Grid inside a StackLayout?

Question

My application calls two templates that create something similar to two ViewCells:

<StackLayout Orientation="Horizontal" Padding="10">
   <template:DataGridTemplate Text="Updated" Label="{Binding Updated}" />
   <template:DataGridTemplate Text="Version" Label="{Binding Version}" />
</StackLayout>

Here's the template XAML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Grid Padding="20,0" xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms" 
      xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml" 
      xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Japanese;assembly=Japanese" 
      x:Class="Japanese.Templates.DataGridTemplate" 
      x:Name="this">
    <local:StyledLabel Text="{Binding Text, Source={x:Reference this}}" HorizontalOptions="Start" VerticalTextAlignment="Center" />
    <local:StyledLabel Text="{Binding Label, Source={x:Reference this}}" HorizontalOptions="End" VerticalTextAlignment="Center" />
</Grid>

I would like the height of the template to be 50 and also to have a line created between the two templates to simulate something like I would find in a ViewCell that's inside a TableSection.

Does anyone have any suggestions how I can do this? I tried setting the height of the Grid to 50 but it tells me that it's a read only property.

StackLayout

<StackLayout Orientation="Vertical" Padding="10" Spacing="0">
    <template:DataGridTemplate Text="Updated" Label="07/21/2018" />
    <template:DataGridTemplate Text="Version" Label="1.0.0" />
</StackLayout>  

DataGridTemplate (the line separator is in here, but could be added directly to the StackLayout instead)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Grid Padding="20,0" HeightRequest="50" xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
      xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml" 
      xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Sof2" 
      x:Class="Sof2.Templates.DataGridTemplate" 
      x:Name="this">

    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <ColumnDefinition />
        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

    <local:StyledLabel Grid.Column="0" Text="{Binding Text, Source={x:Reference this}}" VerticalTextAlignment="Center" />
    <local:StyledLabel Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding Label, Source={x:Reference this}}" TextColor="Silver" VerticalTextAlignment="Center" />

    <!-- Separator -->
    <BoxView Grid.ColumnSpan="2" BackgroundColor="Silver" HeightRequest="1" VerticalOptions="End" />

</Grid>

Result

If interactivity is needed, then you could add TapGestureRecognizers as appropriate.
