Does マンション also mean "luxurious house" in Japanese? According to Jisho.org/mansion and Japanese Core 1000 in Japanese means "apartment, condominium, residential building". But in English where the word might come from, it also refers to a large block of flats in British English, but its primary meaning is "a large, impressive house", which is the meaning we use also in Spanish (we don't use the apartment or condominium meaning at all as far as I know). Therefore this "luxurious house" meaning seems to be missing in Japanese. Does also mean "luxurious house" in Japanese?

Indeed, the Japanese word does not carry the same meaning as "mansion" in English.

Monolingual dictionaries will only list the meaning you mentioned, even though they may point out that the word has a different meaning in English. For example, the entry in reads

> **** **mansion**
>
>

using the word "large residence" (or of course "mansion") in angled brackets to show that the English word has a different meaning.
