Altmer and other ten (Unless you count Sinistral Elves which would make it eleven) elf races live from 200-600 years naturally depending on race.

Dunmer live the longest of four playable elf races, Orsimer live the shortest of all four playable elf races.

Everyone in Tamriel can increase their longevity with magic, even humans and beastfolk.

Baladas Demnvanni is an innordinately powerful Telvanni `wizard who has lived for over 4000 years, has the last Dwemer in his specially-made corprus chamber, has six cloned daughters and even remembers the First Council, The Nerevar and was once a Chimer!

Arch-Curate Vyrthur is a vampire which explains his long life. Knight-Paladin Gelebor however is not, my best theory is that Auri-El or another Aedra, Daedra or Magna-Ge has blessed him with immortality.
