Why not just run Wireguard on a raspberry pi, set up DDNS to send your home IP to a Dynamic DNS provider (if you're on a dynamic IP), and then SSH to your machines at home using keys (instead of passwords)?

Setting up a Pi and running the Wireguard install script is about half an hour of work.

If you're using ddns why do you need WireGuard at all?

I use a similar setup. The VPN is needed because it is the only port accessible outside my network. Wireguard is easy to setup right, and I already need it for accessing other stuff on my home network.
