I've been doing this for a while now with opnsense being what masks the whole network behind the mullvad VPN.
Pros:
Cons:
That all being said, if you're not very technically savvy on the networking side or haven't ever setup a custom router/firewall, this will be a pain. But it you want to learn something new and are up for the challenge, eventually it gets down to almost never having to worry about it. I've been doing it for a long time now, so for me personally, I've gotten to the point of only needing to login to the firewall for a VPN setting update or server change maybe once a month
