If you remain single and based off what you said, I feel a short box 3/4 would be sufficient. Even a long box 3/4. But as 4x4ord said, you might just as well go w/ the 1 ton for price diff.
Pretty good chance of remaining single, living in a cargo trailer, IMO...
To the original question, a 3/4 ton will do everything you are planning, with ease. Basically because they're the SAME as a 1 ton minus a little spring capacity.
Figure out the weight of all the "stuff" on the truck and the tongue weight of the casa and decide if you are ok with potentially adding spring capacity to a 3/4 ton if necessary. (Might be necessary on a 1 ton too depending how much stuff you cram in the truck bed and trailer).
Next is what are you buying, new or used?
New = get whatever you want, cost difference is mostly negligible.
Used = 3/4 tons dominate the market, so your selection will be much greater if you consider both, with the cost, features, color, etc all being important, knowing that the underpinnings are basically the same or at least heavy enough to do whatever you want within your stated plans.
Except ram coils vs leafs.
