Floyd County, Iowa | Seen it done many times. The house was jacked up from the old foundation on heavy steel beams, and cribbed up. A ramp was dug into the dirt on a side, and the old foundation and surrounding dirt was removed with a skid loader. New foundation and walls poured, house sat down on the new walls, cribbing and beams removed. New floor poured and windows installed in the walls where the beams were. Backfilled and done. That's the simplified version, but it pretty much covers it.
Of course the new plumbing, heating, and electrical went in like normal.
edit to add: See pic from "John Smith", below. That's what they did there.
