Starting out with DC and contemplating a change to DCC in the future is very doable. Just set your block switches to one side, and plug in your DCC into that "side" of your block wiring. It's so doable, I did it myself -- in reverse. I now have a DCC/DC layout, with just the addition of a DPDT switch, and an input jack for the DC pack....
The only drawback to DC-for a small layout/operation like you envision, is performance...The difference in loco performance is quite noticeable.
