How to FTP to LAMP Apache | TurnKey GNU/Linux

I instealled Turnkey LAMP, and can see the default index.php file by typing dir/var/www. But when I connect through filezilla using sftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22, the directory listing I get does not include the var directory, only files .sdirs, .mysql_history, .bash_history, etc. How do I FTP to the www directory?

By default it goes to your home dir

So when logging in as root via (S)FTP it will open your server at /root so to get to /var/www you need to go down a level (to /) then up to /var/www (or you can just type that straight into the 'Remote Site' bar).
