You should backup the wallet.dat file, not just your address. Only by having your wallet.dat (private key) will you be able to spend your btc.

Is it sufficient to have the address and dump the private key, and have that pair stored in keepass, or written down?
With just those strings, could a wallet be reconstructed?

Yep, when you write the public / private key on paper it's called a paper wallet.
