sri barman ji is brief but accurate in the reply.
to be ancestral any property should have passed hands from 3 generations and then landed in the hands of 4 th generation, say from great grand father to grand father to father to son.
property in above query does not pass this test. hence it is not ancestral property.
Reply is NO to item 1 and 2 in your query.
as for item 3 in your query,note the property never assumed the character of ancestral property. HENCE decree makes it self acquired property.
