Since property is self acquired and the sons cannot claim share/right over the same during the lifetime of the father. The father sell/gift/donate or do what ever he wants with the property, no son can challenge his rights before any authority/fora/court.

Although father has every authority to sell the house, the purchaser may insist for vacant possession of the house to complete the sale. The real problem will arise if the elder son who is staying in the house refuses to vacate the house.
