    The summary of FTP issue and workaround fix:
    In Plesk it is possible to have only one user that could access domain via SFTP & can not have different home directory than the web home directory

    so the solution until they implement it as i write before:
    1) create additional FTP account from GUI admin panel.

    2) run the commands below from SSH:
    usermod -s /bin/bash <username>
    mkdir /home/<username>
    chown versand /home/<username>

    3)also remember to delete home directory /home/<username> after you delete additional FTP user

    hope that help someone
