If the wife is the sole surviving heir of her husband, she can execute a will even with regard to the properties which have not been mutated in her name after the death of her husband and such will is perfectly legal and valid.

I concur with Parveen and wish to supplement that apart from his wife there are no claimants to the property as per legal heirship and the property is not charged to any liability
