If you have a 3GB partition mounted as /home, then a cd/home will indeed
take you there. Note, though, that your (non-root) user startup directory
will be /home/<username>, so it is also on the 3GB partition. Underneath
that startup directory will be a lot of configuration files (for Netscape,
Gimp, KDE, etc.) which should be handled with care.
Programs are normally stored under /usr or /opt, though, so you should make
certain you have sufficient space for these directories.
Other than that, yes, the whole 3GB is yours to do with as you wish
