I have more or less the same setup as you,
and I have
net.ipv4.conf.ip_forward = 0
in /etc/sysctl like you,
but I have no problem accessing my server from my laptop.
I am running shorewall,
and it would be easy to set this up
to have the effect you describe.
I have the line
loc $FW ACCEPT
in /etc/shorewall/policy .
The default is
loc $FW REJECT info
which would have the effect you describe.
Nb I don't really understand iptables,
but I find shorewall does most of the thinking for me.
