Need advice for road bike

I'm 6'1", 185-190 lbs. just getting back to biking, I would prefer comfort, less weight if possible, and some durability. Likely will ride the bike only once a week except during winter season. Trying to keep it below $1000 (I've shopped around and the least expensive full carbon frame I've found in one shop is $1500). There are some good cycle shops in the city I live in and I know they'll work with me on a good fit. Just need some advice on what frame ( alum vs. steel vs. carbon) to finally decide on as I would prefer to use the bike for several years. Thanks.
