Legal Question in International Law in France

house purchase france

We are an unmarried English couple with one child between us and i have a child from a previous marriage,how do we buy a house in france so as if one of us dies the house can be inherited by the other?

We dont want to go down the route of a SCI(societe civile immobiliere) for several reasons, is there another way ? Again i will say we are not married.

We hope someone can help.

Many Thanks

M & S

You should be able to buy it in the form called "tontiniere" which should solve the problem. Depending upon a variety of factors, though, an SCI might make more sense.
