I would look at having a "walk out" basement if possible. And what ever you do, put a good drain system around the outside footing, coat the concrete with a good waterproofing, and if possible, cover it with a good quality, foam insulation board.

Anything you can do to keep it dry and warmer.

The house I built on the farm in 1984 never leaked or had dampness problems cause of the drains and waterproofing. I also really beefed up the amount of re-bar

Good luck, Gene
