You can get the valuation doen as per the land and buidling method and use the capital gains indexation to reduce your capital gains tax.

For the land, you can take the date of purchase by your father as the intial rate and index value since then till the date of sale by you.

For the building, you can take construction costs as per the date of construction and sicne it is only one year old, you will not get any depreciation on the same.
