When deciding whether a VPN is overkill you need to understand the alternatives your considering. Eg: Typically a VPN is used for remote access to your office from home or vice-versa. Alternative methods for doing this usually mean opening ports for direct access in ways that are horribly insecure, or the default alternative of just not bothering because its too much hassle. In both cases a VPN is better, and OpenVPN is as good a solution as any (and better than many).
I think the main reason I thought VPN was OTT is that there isn't an N it's just a single server.
Having said that it is a windows server so maybe an OS VPN onto a mini-LAN with the server on it is the way to go.
