It doesn’t mean anything. I mean, what is a “luxury” single family house? There’s no specific meaning.

I would never buy a home with an elevator due to the maintenance and safety issues but yeah the truly luxury townhomes typically offer elevators as an option at minimum.

Apartment complexes have made the term "luxury" meaningless, but to the extent it means anything for townhomes, I'd expect a two-car garage plus at least 3k sf of living space, large patio and deck, at least two separate HVAC zones, walk in closets, and upstairs washer dryer. I'd also hope the community itself has nice common spaces for playing/gathering outside. This is of course all in addition to nice fixtures and good walls such that I can't hear my neighbors.

Don't forget the elevator and roof-top deck.

What about “luxury townhomes”?

I’d expect crown molding in all rooms, designer elements, high end light fixtures, nothing builder grade, landscaping, bay windows, outdoor entertaining area, window treatments, etc.
