how to restrict ip range that can remotelly connect to my machine at work

Question
-
Hello,
I was thinking about allowing only local IP range (from withing my organization) to my machine (via remote desktop that I want to run at home).
I'll be using VPN and will get my organizations IP range when connecting (thus I will automaticallty get an ip from my organizations range).
Is it possible to restrict ip range that is allowed for remote desktoping to my computer?
If possible, how should I do it exactly?
Regards
Zoran
