So after asking around and doing some reading, I’m gonna go with this build.
Just bought Summerset too. Was too good a deal to pass up with Morrowind included.

Where did you see the best deal?
There wasn’t one according to isthereanydeal.com, so I just got the $30 upgrade.
For the Summerset upgrade if you are a humble monthly subscriber, its 10% off.
GMG had a 20% code ‘SUMMER20’ that worked for Summerset. I read that it’s still valid through today.
Yeah I got it for like $24.
Test it in my cart, it still works!

Wow, Summerset is pretty. And I’m already liking how magey this templar is.
So folks, add ons, hit me with them.
All mods are at esoui.com, go look around and see what interests you. Essential ones I would say are SkyShards, LoreBooks, Lost Treasure, Easy Travel, Votan’s Minimap, Advanced Filters, and No Accidental Stealing. I would find playing the game annoying without them. Playing the console version without a minimap, without skyshards on the map? No thanks.
There are tons of mods out there like AUI/Azurah/FTC that make massive UI changes, I use those too, but they’re your personal preference.
Also you can use their program to download/install/update mods automatically.

If you’re an explorer, I wouldn’t recommend the Skyshard addon. The game provides a list of every skyshard in each zone and a clue/riddle on where it’s located. If you just want dem skillpoints, knock yourself out, though.

How is it to start a new game in the Summerset region?
Would it then make sense to go and do the base game content, or is there some over arching story where that wouldn’t make sense?

I wouldn’t. Many of the characters are those you should have met before, including some of the most important characters in the game. You’ll lose much of the story’s impact by starting in Summerset.
My advice: Quickly find the boat to your faction’s starting island (Khenarthi’s Roost, Strok M’Kai or Bleakrock for AD, DC and EP, respectively). The stories start there. You don’t have to do all the sidequests if you want to rush a bit, but every zone has a main quest. These all fit together with the Cold Harbour questline, which is the game’s overall main quest. As you finish each zone, you’ll get breadcrumbs to the next. Just make sure to do any quest involving your faction leader and your primary guide (whom you meet on that island).
