That's one way, and of course enable forwarding on the VPN endpoint. 
Another way is proxy ARP: give your home machine a 10.0.0.0/24 IP 
address and tell the endpoint to do proxy ARP. I have posted about how 
to do this in Linux on this list some time back.

A third option, the least desirable, is to use NAT. Give the home 
machine a route to 10.0.0.0/24 through the VPN endpoint as gateway, 
which would have to do SNAT and forwarding.
