>I tried reducing Maximum Depth, and the virtual print bed did get smaller, but on the actual print bed it still reached the edges of the bed.

That's because the origin is at the front left corner of the bed still. When your printer does its zeroing it determines the physical origin point and then everything else is relative to that point so the virtual bed will always be placed at the front left corner of the physical one.

You could shift the origin to have the virtual bed be properly centered on the physical one. You can attach extensions to the parts that hit the limit switches so that the switches get hit early and trick the printer into thinking the origin is further into the bed, but then you have the problem of the hot end resting inside the bed while heating up which could wreck your bed in that specific spot and cause melted plastic to build up on the nozzle.
