curtain-twitchers
Peeping through drapes
Curtain-twitchers are nosy neighbors who spy on others from behind their curtains, watching comings and goings on the street.
The term is primarily British and mildly contemptuous, suggesting busybodies with nothing better to do: The curtain-twitchers will have noticed your car in my driveway.
By extension, anyone excessively curious about others' private affairs.
