I actually went a very similar route, but with a Thinkserver device. It's been some number of years, but it looks like they still have something similar on offer: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/servers-storage/servers/tower...

These aren't low power in the same way an ARM-based edge-of-network device might be, but it's been great for what I need: some minimal local services, lots of storage, and fair cpu performance for things like transcoding media.
