In the UK the it would be very unusual to see two houses with garages, where the garages share a wall. Our semi-detached houses always share a house wall. Garages, if they have them, would be on the opposite side of the house.
Townhouses sound more like the posh Georgian terraces that you'd find in places like Bath and Leamington Spa and less like the workers houses you'd see on Coronation Street.
Condo is like a block of flats where everyone is responsible for upkeep of the common infrastructure? I don't think we use that model for separate housing.
