No, but in the UK if the property's value at the time of the gift to you was more than £3000 then, form a tax point of view (part of) it should comprise the 'estate of the deceased from an inheritance tax purpose.

The only claim the stepson may have would be if he were to argue that the person was not of sound mind when he gave the property to you and therefore you should not have accepted it.

All this said, if the property in question was of particular sentimental value to the stepson - ie it had been in his father's family and is therefore important to him, you may consider giving it to him or at least willing it to him after you die. That would be 'just'.
