I've never heard this noise before coming from a brake caliper especially both front calipers at the same time. It is a very odd noise and I'm sure it sounds worse because it resinates through the car. You hear it both inside and outside. If you sit by either front wheel you can hear which of the two is creaking at an instant, though both will make the noise at one point or another.
It may be time to pull a wheel off and inspect things.
