Buying an apartment in Neuilly-sur-Seine
The family apartment makes up most of the Neuilly-sur-Seine property market. The town is mainly built of apartment buildings, from the Haussmann façades of the centre to the more recent residences along the Bois de Boulogne and the Seine. Metro line 1, at Les Sablons and Pont de Neuilly, puts Paris a few minutes away.
Buyers look first for a family layout: a proper reception room, several bedrooms, often a building with a concierge and a lift. Floor, light, view and outdoor space then make all the difference. For houses and private mansions, see our page on prime property in Neuilly-sur-Seine.

What drives the value of an apartment in Neuilly
Two Neuilly apartments of the same size can be priced very differently. Five factors explain most of the gap.
| Factor |
What matters |
| Floor |
A high floor with a lift brings light and quiet, and adds clear value. |
| View |
The Bois de Boulogne, the Seine and, from some upper floors, the Eiffel Tower or La Défense. |
| Outdoor space |
Balcony, terrace or private garden. A terrace with no overlooking remains the rarest asset. |
| Building |
Concierge, well-kept common areas, lift, a courtyard or quiet-street aspect. |
| Extras |
Cellar, parking space or garage, maid’s room. |
Terraces remain the exception in Neuilly. See also our apartments with terrace in Paris.

For families, the address is often chosen around the schools. The Cité scolaire Pasteur, Sainte-Marie de Neuilly, Notre-Dame de Sainte-Croix and Saint-Dominique are among the most sought-after. The catchment area of the Collège and Lycée Pasteur weighs on the choice of an apartment in Les Sablons as much as in the Pasteur district.
