It says on the Surly webpage that the LHT frame comes small enough for you.
Trek 520 also comes small enough.

Both these bikes have "decent/common components" and would have a higher resale price than a no-name bike.

I understand buying components one by one is more expensive than purchasing a complete bike of the same quality although I've never done it. However, building a bike from scratch would be a fun exercise.
