I know people who have moved out of London and the commute is the thing that breaks you (from what I've heard) but it is balanced out by the making of new like minded friends and the space of property you can afford.
I'm currently looking for larger property in London, knowing that I can move further to the edges of London to get something bigger, but knowing that our budget will always be just under getting the size of house we really want.
As long as your missus is willing to hack the commute and you've no desire to stay in London long term. I'd say go for the bigger space in a community you can live with/enjoy..
