If your Hindu father died intestate ie without making a Will in favour of his second wife,than you both sons along with the second wife are having one share each in his property. His second wife cannot sale the house without your permission/consent and after the sale you both get one share each of the proceed received and she gets one share.

Second marriage during the subsistence of the first marriage, is illegal in India and the relationship arising from the same does not have any validity. The second wife in India have little protection under the law.

Your step mother, you and your brother will have equal share in your father's property in absence of will of your father. And your step mother cannot sale father's property without your consent / noc / behind your back.

All of three can sell proprty but only to extent to their share in property as they , after death of father/husband became absolute co-owners even though property is unpartitioned

In case your father dies intestate then you your brother and yo�r step mother will get equal share ( each will get 1/3 share ) .your st�p mother alone can not sell the property belongs to your father.
