Hallo DaneA,
thanks for your friendly and detailed answer.
I did some reading and think I need some more sophisticated L3-capabilities like SPI or reflexive ACLs between the VLANs.
It might be easier to take a pure L2 switch and some real router.

Hi glueball,
Welcome to the community! :)
The GS724Tv4 is categorized as a Layer 2 Smart Switch and not a Fully Managed Switch. With regard to Inter-VLAN Routing, let me share the articles below and these might help as reference guides:

The question is if the GS724T brings the necessary internal L3-possibilites for the described setup.
The GS724Tv4 (v = version) has Layer 3 Lite features only. As reference, kindly check its data sheet here.
If you want a Layer 3 switch, I recommend you the NETGEAR Fully Managed Switches like the M4100 series and M4300 series models. Kindly check the link below to know more:
