I admittedly did not searched for caching solution as I'm not using
multiple computers.

I've used "$apt_cache = 0" option before which worked well without the
need of a server on localhost so searched why it wasn't working after a
sbuild update.
Since then, as a workaround, I'm hand-editing ResolverBase.pm to comment
the "print $F qq(APT::Keep-Downloaded-Packages "false";\n);" line and
this makes sbuild keep downloaded package cached.

I would prefer to make "$apt_cache = 0" works (that is, keep downloaded
packages) than installing an additional server instead, as the patch is
really easy to implement (just add an "if" in ResolverBase.pm, I can
provide an test that patch myself).
