In Seilh, the average price stands at 3 246 €/m². This average covers a housing stock largely dominated by detached houses, the legacy of the residential development launched around the golf course in the 1990s, alongside a small volume of more recent apartments. Differences in value mainly stem from proximity to the Garonne, plot size and the condition of the property. This figure comes from DVF data, the French notarised sales database, meaning transactions actually registered with notaries in the municipality, rather than theoretical estimates or asking prices.

The Seilh market is driven by the momentum of north-west Toulouse, one of the most sought-after areas of the conurbation. The immediate proximity of the Blagnac aerospace hub, with Airbus and its subcontractors, fuels continuous demand from managers and technicians looking to live near their workplace. The municipality's demographic growth, with its population more than quadrupling since 1990, reflects this appeal. This pressure on a limited supply of detached houses keeps prices above those of several neighbouring municipalities in the outer suburban ring.
Available land is becoming scarce in Seilh, whose 616 hectares are partly occupied by the golf course, farmland and the Garonne flood zone. This physical constraint limits new developments and strengthens the value of existing housing. The residential setting, between river, golf course and spacious housing estates, appeals to families who favour quality of life over urban density. As long as metropolitan employment remains buoyant and building land stays scarce, the local market should remain firm, without the swings of the large cities.
Seilh sits in the upper range of the municipalities in Toulouse's outer suburban ring. Its prices are well above those of Beauzelle and Blagnac, its neighbours on the banks of the Garonne, while remaining below those of Toulouse itself.
The name Seilh derives from the Latin soliu, a blend of solea, the flat base, and solu, the ground, a place name referring to the terrace landform bordering the Garonne. Human occupation there is very old: the site of the château de Percin has yielded traces of settlement as early as the Neolithic, around 3500 BC. Between 1946 and the 1970s, several excavation campaigns uncovered nearly three thousand items there, including pebbles, tools and pottery. The municipality has two châteaux, Percin, whose origins date back to the 14th century, and Rochemontès.
The present church, dedicated to Sainte-Blandine, was built in 1881. Saint Blandine, patron saint of the municipality, is honoured every 2 June with a procession, a tradition that is still alive. The municipality, covering around 616 hectares, lies between 112 and 145 metres above sea level. The Garonne borders the municipality, while the Aussonnelle, a tributary some forty kilometres long, crosses its land before joining the river on Seilh territory. This position on an alluvial terrace, twelve kilometres north of Toulouse and seven from Blagnac, long kept Seilh in an agricultural, village profile.
Until 1962, the population remained stable, at around two hundred and fifty to four hundred inhabitants. The turning point came in the late 1980s: the Toulouse-Seilh golf course, opened in 1988 and designed by Jean Garaïalde and Jérémy Pern, covers nearly 140 hectares with two eighteen-hole courses. Residential development grew around this facility, taking the municipality from 816 inhabitants in 1990 to more than three thousand three hundred today. Part of Toulouse Métropole, Seilh now combines housing estates of detached houses, proximity to the Blagnac aerospace hub and a preserved riverside setting.
Seilh has 3 356 inhabitants according to INSEE, the French statistics institute, a population that has jumped by nearly 61 % since 1999. The housing stock, estimated at around 1 520 dwellings, consists of 89 % main residences according to INSEE, with the share of second homes and vacant dwellings remaining low. The municipality stands out for its high rate of owner-occupiers, close to 63 %, consistent with a fabric dominated by detached houses. Buyers are mainly families and working people employed in the Toulouse area, particularly around the Blagnac aerospace industry, looking for a suburban setting close to the city without its density.
The average price recorded in Seilh is 3 246 €/m², based on DVF data from transactions registered with notaries. This average combines detached houses, which make up the vast majority in the municipality, and a small number of apartments. The actual price of a property varies with its size, condition, plot size and proximity to the Garonne or the golf course. An online valuation helps refine this benchmark for your home.
Seilh is organised around its old village centre and the housing estates developed since the 1990s near the Toulouse-Seilh golf course. The recent suburban neighbourhoods account for most of the houses, while the banks of the Garonne and the Aussonnelle offer a greener setting. Proximity to the Blagnac aerospace zone and access to Toulouse steer demand towards these quiet areas that are well connected to the metropolitan area.
Seilh lies about twelve kilometres north of Toulouse and seven from Blagnac, along the Garonne. The municipality belongs to Toulouse Métropole and is connected to the conurbation's road network. Toulouse-Blagnac airport and the major aerospace employment hubs are close by. The car remains the main mode of transport for commuting, supplemented by bus lines serving Toulouse metro stations.
The Seilh market is clearly dominated by detached houses. Residential development over the last three decades has mainly produced houses with land, and the share of owner-occupiers exceeds 60 % according to INSEE. Apartments remain a minority and come from more recent developments. A buyer looking for an apartment will therefore have limited choice, whereas the supply of family houses accounts for most of the annual transactions recorded in the municipality.
The Seilh market remains narrow, in keeping with a municipality of just over three thousand inhabitants. DVF data record around thirty transactions a year, a modest volume that reflects the size of the housing stock and the high proportion of long-standing owners. This scarcity of properties for sale supports prices. For a seller, getting an accurate valuation before putting a property on the market helps with positioning against steady demand from the Toulouse conurbation.
