There are more then one simple ways, here is one:
Do a square, weld the upper 2 vertices together.
Bevel the surface and weld the resulting new vertices together.
Select the resulting vertice in the middle and move it up to the location you like.
That's it

Have a look at the first sentence (and after snap together and weld, there is no need to optimize)
