I would get a nice-ish road frame that can fit 28mm tires and full coverage fenders (32-ish tires without) and put a group from Ribble on it. Probably Force.
I could do just about everything I'd want to do on a bike short of gnarlier MTB trails and really muddy cross racing on a bike like that.
I'd probably have two wheelsets - a light one for road-only use, and a beefier one for commuting/ trail use with 32s when the fenders come off.
