This would be a roof element so model it as such using a roof plan sketch. 

I don't have Revit here but this is a plan of what you do.  All of the faceted side eaves would have a set slope. No slope for the rake side which is two seperate lines that meet at the apex.

Ah ... I missed the term "conservatory", we do not use that term in the US.   

I would think about using an in-place family, an extrusion along one of the ridges.  Then copy / rotate tha from the center (apex) to the other angles.
