you can also look into hosted services like EMS but I don't know if you have to provide identifiable info.
it's all encrypted on the client -> e2e. even if it was http and no SSL
you have to provide a domain, I'm not sure how easy it would be to run it without and only locally on a LAN. IT's possible but the experience wont be good. you also can't federate. It's much easier to use a hosted server.
the same way like you'd do it with a publicly exposed host.
BUT I think I'd go with p2p matrix before going the LAN route.
Here's a p2p matrix built https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1uK_BcHGiAYHkN6OAA7P73obAquwShRg5
look into the matrix room for more info p2p:matrix.org.
