I'm surprised you've struggled to find a 2/3 bed in E10/E11 for £475k. We were looking in that area with a much lower budget and had a look round a few, some 3 beds even.
From what we experienced I think houses are generally more popular which in turn would help with the resale. Having the freehold, no downstairs neighbours and the all important 'own front door' are all big selling points.
I was really looking for help with house vs flat discussion and just trying to set the scene. I didn't mean for that to come off as anything else.
