gabled
With triangular rooftops
Gabled describes a building or structure that has one or more gables—the triangular portions of wall between the edges of intersecting roof pitches.
A gabled roof, the most common type, has two sloping sides that meet at a ridge, creating that distinctive triangular shape at each end.
The gabled farmhouse stood out against the flat prairie landscape.
Architecture featuring multiple gables often suggests traditional or Victorian style.
