Need help with PPTP / DHCP for accessing network resources via VPN

So I’m trying to understand how to get my remote (VPN) clients to be treated as if they’re on the local network. I have a Bridge device configured and in proxy-arp mode, I have a DHCP server that is successfully handing out IPs to both my LAN clients and my VPN clients, but instead of the same network for VPN clients as for LAN clients, I get 10.0.10.(IP-1), e.g. 10.0.10.253 gets a network of 10.0.10.252. I’m not sure what I’m missing here; I want these devices to be treated as on the same network so we can access network shares/etc, and if possible I’m trying to avoid IP routing.

What can I provide to help figure out what I’m missing here, or is it just not possible to get the VPN clients to hit the same network as the LAN/WLAN clients? I tried assigned the PPP profile to my LAN/WLAN bridge, but it didn’t seem to help. Thanks in advance for any advice and sorry if this seems a silly question - I don’t have a lot of experience in networking (8 years doing call center product-based tech support, finally working Real IT for a tech mgmt/MSP company who’s willing to train me but most of my training is self-directed things like this).
