I'm 5'4" (well, 5' 3.75")and I just got a Felt F85X in November. I swapped the stem and got a handlebar with a shorter reach and now it fits great. I got a 51 and it comes smaller than that, so there are cyclocross bikes out there in the smaller size.
Other bikes I considered were the Trek Crossrip; Fuji Cross and Tread; Diamondback Haanjo comp; GT Grade; Raleigh RXW; Specialized Diverge; and Liv Invite. My budget was much smaller than yours though so I was looking at lower end bikes compared to what you're seeking.
A lot of people recommended Surly when I was asking for recommendations.
That Fairdale looks great!
