Not sure of the exact context of your question, but here goes. In the controller, return the documents to the Freemarker template (e.g., model.documentlist). Using Freemarker list function reference documentlist as child (perhaps that is what you were referring to as row in your example).
The path is child.displayPath. Then concatonate child.name. You'll also have to add the server and context to front (http://localhost/alfresco/).

You don't need properties.folder.

Thanks. That worked. I was wondering if there is a way to get the Folder Title. The displaypath is kind of long and my folder names have no spaces in them. For better readability it would be nice if I could get the folder title.

TIA

Yes, you can retrieve the folder's title as a property of the folder.
